One more thing to note, rpi-update is not the normal update mechanism for the stable release kernel. It's "A tool to get the latest bleeding-edge firmware and kernel for your Raspberry Pi. … Even on Raspberry Pi OS you should only use this with a good reason." APT is the normal update mechanism for the kernel; 6.6.47 is the current stable release, and 6.6.50 (and anything else from rpi-update) is beta/pre-release/etc.

Also, on your image which was upgraded from Bullseye to Bookworm, and was still on a 6.1 kernel, it's possible you don't have the default v8 kernel packages installed. If you want/need them:

Code:

sudo apt install linux-headers-rpi-v8 linux-image-rpi-v8
Those unversioned packages depend on the latest versioned package, and get updated to point to new versions as they are released (so trigger automatic installs & upgrades through APT). For a server which you want to just sit there quietly doing its thing, stick to the automatic latest from APT (either v8 or 2712, whichever you prefer) unless you have some specific good reason to use something else.
