linux-headers-******generic********_amd64.deb
linux-headers-**********************_all.deb
linux-image-******generic**********_amd64.deb
Here are the complete names in the kernel 4.8 RC3 series:
linux-headers-4.8.0-040800rc3-generic_4.8.0-040800rc3.201608212032_amd64.deb
linux-headers-4.8.0-040800rc3_4.8.0-040800rc3.201608212032_all.deb
linux-image-4.8.0-040800rc3-generic_4.8.0-040800rc3.201608212032_amd64.deb
Do not take the "low latency" ones, unless you intent to use then.
Install then with a "sudo dpkg -i linux*.deb" command line in the directory you downloaded them, and reboot.
If you want to uninstall, the fastest way is use apt-get with the version you want to uninstall. For example, the packages above have "4.8.0-040800rc3", so you type "sudo apt-get uninstall --purge 4.8.0-040800rc3*" and reboot
