[App_rpt-users] Asterisk unable to start

[Lu V]

So I might have learned something.  Hear me out and tell me if I am on the
right track?
In the readme of the ASL image  it says:
"There may have been updates to the operating system and AllStarLink since
this image was built.
Run the following commands after the first time you boot.

sudo  raspberrypi-kernel-headers raspberrypi-kernel
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade -y
sudo reboot"

I never did any of these.. Is the "*apt-mark hold" *a permanent way to
prevent the kernel from being upgraded?
Or is it just temporary?
And just to make sure, we should always run the update and upgrade going
forward? (With the mark hold)
