Notice the 
Install Ubuntu Server with the HWE kernel
 option. If you choose this 
option, then your installation of Ubuntu Server will contain the new HWE packages 
immediately.
If you've already installed Ubuntu Server and you'd like to install the HWE updates 
afterward, you can do so from the terminal. In Ubuntu 18.04, for example, you were 
able to switch to the HWE kernel with the following command:
sudo apt install --install-recommends linux-generic-hwe-18.04
When Ubuntu 20.04 releases its newer HWE stack, a similar command will likely be 
used to install it. If you need a newer HWE kernel, refer to instructions in Ubuntu's 
documentation pages when that time comes.
Summary
In this chapter, we have taken a crash course in the world of package management. 
As you can see, Ubuntu Server offers an amazing number of software packages 
and various tools that we can use to manage them. We began the chapter with a 
discussion of how package management with Ubuntu works, then we worked 
through installing packages, searching for packages, and managing repositories. 
We have also discussed best practices for keeping our server up to date, as well as 
the commands available for us to install the latest updates. Snap packages were also 
covered, which is an exciting up-and-coming technology that will greatly enhance 
software distribution on Ubuntu.
In 
Chapter 4
, 
Navigating and Essential Commands
, we'll take a look at foundational 
commands for navigating the Linux Shell, understanding the filesystem layout, and 
more.
