Got it taken care of Tony, thanks. Moving
the /etc/kernel/postinst.d/update-notifier symlink to a 'hold' folder
did not do the trick. I also had to
move /usr/share/update-notifier/notify-reboot-required script to a
'hold' folder. Since there was an update to the Ubuntu 3.13.* kernel
this morning it got tested.
