Did a search but couldn't find what I needed. I just want to hold back kernel packages from updating. I'm trying to update other things in the xterm and want to avoid updating kernel-power to v48 (v47 works fine for me and v48 from what I've seen has a few problems.)

I found this thread..
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.p...+back+packages

Trying to do this though resulted in dpkg not recognizing the second command (to set the packages on hold.) Any help is appreciated.

Thanks.
