william@beaglebone:~$ *apt-cache search linux-image |grep 4.1*

Too much output here to view. Narrow search parameters assuming I want a
*bone* kernel, and not ti kernel.

william@beaglebone:~$ *apt-cache search linux-image |grep 4.1*bone**
linux-image-4.0.4-bone4 - Linux kernel, version 4.0.4-bone4
linux-image-4.1.14-bone-rt-r17 - Linux kernel, version 4.1.14-bone-rt-r17
linux-image-4.1.14-bone17 - Linux kernel, version 4.1.14-bone17
linux-image-4.1.4-bone15 - Linux kernel, version 4.1.4-bone15
linux-image-4.2.4-bone2 - Linux kernel, version 4.2.4-bone2
linux-image-4.3.4-bone4 - Linux kernel, version 4.3.4-bone4
linux-image-4.5.0-rc4-bone2 - Linux kernel, version 4.5.0-rc4-bone2

Much more manageable, now I just need to pick one. In this case, let's
assume I want the latest rt image.

william@beaglebone:~$ *sudo apt-get install linux-image-4.1.14-bone-rt-r17*

After which we need to reboot. But first. Let's confirm we're not already
using that kernel.

william@beaglebone:~$ *uname -r*
4.1.12-bone-rt-r16
william@beaglebone:~$ *sudo reboot*

Broadcast message from root@beaglebone (pts/0) (Thu Apr  7 15:37:25 2016):
The system is going down for reboot NOW!

Log in after reboot . . .

william@beaglebone:~$ *uname -r*
4.1.14-bone-rt-r17

Also keep in mind that the old kernel is still in place, and in fact can be
set to be the boot kernel again by making a single modification to one
file. So, if in fact you're done with the old kernel, it may behoove you to
remove it least it clogs of your storage, and you soon run out of room.
