raspberrypi-kernel_1.20190819~stretch-1_armhf.deb 4.19.66-v7+

It was installed when
mount -o remount,rw /boot
mount -o remount,rw /

to fix apt --fix-broken install
which I need to install vim-gtk

I have not rebooted yet.
Should I restore the previous kernel version?
Linux bbctrl 4.9.59-v7+

If so how?

Thx

Is Linux bbctrl 4.9.59-v7+ available pre-compiled?

This would make restoring very easy.

Thx

It should be ok but I have not tried it. If it fails you can recopy the buildbotics base image to your sd card.
