[SOLVED] how install : linux-lts-5.15.30 ? (write in detail)

i downloaded and installed that: artix-cinnamon-suite66-20220123-x86_64
with KVER=5,16.1-artix1-1

next, i downloaded two files from windows10, and add files to linux:
1) linux-lts-5.15.30-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst
2) linux-lts-headers-5.15.30-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst
su
cd /home/x/offlie-pgk/
sudo pacman -U  linux-lts-5.15.30-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst   linux-lts-headers-5.15.30-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst

- installation SUCCES.

but, I don’t see that I have the lts core involved
I use the kernel that was installed by default, when choosing a boot, there is no LTS (there is only 1 choice, the default is boot, and something like, recovery, LTS there is no boot choice, in grub select boot)

by any chance, is there any other command that needs to be done after i installed the lts kernel?
all I did was install the lts kernel, reboot, and nothing has changed

Why do you download them from windows? Why don't you use pacman to do what it is made for?
You need to regenerate the grub configuration so that it takes the new initramfs into account

Yes, you should update the grub configuration after installing a new kernel in order to make it visible in the menu:
Code: [Select]
sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
or:
Code: [Select]
sudo update-grub

EDIT: And yeah, you definitely don't need Windows to manage your Linux installation, you can make everything from inside your Linux system. This applies not only to Artix, but to any other distro.
