Actually, I need to correct my previous post. The package I listed will
install the 6.0 oem kernel, but won't pull in the header files. The
package to do that is "linux-oem-22.04b" This metapackage has
dependencies on the linux-image and linux-header packages. Just install
it and it'll automatically pull in the headers package but not the
linux-image one since you've already installed it.
Now, you won't need to uninstall the linux-image package, but you will
need to change its package status from manually installed to
automatically installed. This is so that an upgrade to the
linux-oem-22.04b metapackage will automatically upgrade both the
linux-image-oem-22.04b and linux-headers-oem-22.04b packages.
To change the status of the linux-image package, use the apt-mark utility.
$ sudo apt-mark auto linux-image-oem-22.04b
So, install status should be:
linux-oem-22.04b - manual
linux-image-oem-22.04b - automatic
linux-headers-oem-22.04b - automatic
Sorry I didn't catch that about the headers in my previous reply.
