Verify loaded right kernel on linux (alien.top)

Received my framework 13 AMD and the accompanying email states:

Ubuntu 22.04.3 - Follow this guide, make absolutely sure you follow the instructions at step 9 for AMD Ryzen 7040 Series as the default kernel is not recommended. Verify you loaded the right kernel on reboot with uname -r run from a terminal.

What output from uname -r should I expect to see if I have loaded the right kernel? Couldn't find the answer to that question on any of the guides nor in the email. I believe I installed the oem kernel correctly. The output I see is 6.2.0-36-generic but I'm not positive if that's the output I was expecting since it says nothing about oem.

Everything needed is here. Follow step by step. https://github.com/FrameworkComputer/linux-docs/blob/main/ubuntu-22.04-amd-fw13.md

I'm on an Ubuntu derivative, and because of that the code block isn't ideal for me. The manual guide seems fine, I would just add a step explaining how you can verify the correct kernel is being used.

I figured out the answer to my question is that uname -r should return (at the moment) 6.1.0-1025-oem as verification that the correct kernel is being used.
