A Kernel ID to boot a Linode with. Here are examples of commonly-used kernels:

* `linode/latest-64bit` (default): Our latest kernel at the time of instance boot/reboot.
* `linode/grub2`: The upstream distribution-supplied kernel that is installed on the primary disk, or a custom kernel if installed.
* `linode/direct-disk`: The MBR (Master Boot Record) of the primary disk/root device, used instead of a Linux kernel.

For a complete list of options, use the [Kernels List](/docs/api/linode-instances/#kernels-list) command.
