VERSION="$( basename $0 ) Version 0.2.4 from 02.11.2021"
#
# Input:        1 parameter optional ("-d" = debug and "-v" = verbose / "-D" = Distro only / "-DV" = Distro and release only / "-K" = running KernelVerion / "-N" = New Kernel Version)
# Output:       text messages and a kdialog if this is installed
# Returnvalue:	0 if Kernel OK and 10 if Kernel is changed
#
#
# Changes:
#	0.2.4:		Change way to collect Distro Name from /etc/os-releas (if empty - provide old info)
#	0.2.3:		Fix error => update in case only one Kernel is avaialble
#	0.2.2:		Fix error => new Kernel update: replace initrd with vmlinuz check
#	0.2.1:		added -D -K and -N option
#               Fixed error and exit with more than one /boot/initrd-* file
#	0.2.0:		InitKernel und VmlzKernel entfernt, 
#               [ $( ls -1 /boot/ | grep initrd- | wc -l ) -gt 1 ] && echo "** Error" || ls -1 /boot/ | grep initrd- | cut -d '-' -f 2,3,4
#               Some small changes and simplifications
#	0.1.9:		InitKernel erneut angepasstsys
#	0.1.8:		"==" -> "=" sowie kleinere Shönheitskorrekturen - sowie InitKernel mit awk statt cut
#	0.1.7:		remove "CheckKernel.sh: Zeile 33: lsb_release: Kommando nicht gefunden." 
#			and => -d = debaug
#	0.1.6:		if "lsb_release" not available use "cat /etc/*-release" info
#	0.1.5:		Fix trouble if InitKernel is empty
#	0.1.4:		Fix some errors
#	0.1.3:		Fix running and new kernel are equal but shown as different
#	0.1.2:		Remove "initrd-" from InitKernel
#	0.1.1:		Add Kernel Info in kdialog
#	0.1.0:		exchange some direct calls against definition
#				add check if new Kernel is in GRUB Config file
#	0.0.7:		read Kernel version from menu.lst
#	0.0.6:		add verbose mode
#	0.0.5:		syslog messages
#	0.0.4:		returnvalue if Kernel is changed is 10
#	0.0.3:		hostname in kdialog title
#	0.0.2:		kdialog output
#	0.0.1:		generation
