The forthcoming Debian 10.0 (buster) release

Hello, Debian 10 (buster) is supposed to be released later today. Those who wish to upgrade to it in the usual Debian way should be able to do so after reading the release notes for any gotchas: https://www.debian.org/releases/testing/amd64/release-notes/ I am not aware of any gotchas that are specific to the BitFolk environment, but if you think you have found one please do let us know. If planning a clean install, the "buster" release has been available for some time in our Xen Shell, but under the code name "debian_testing", because right now it still is technically the testing release. If you issue the command: xen shell> install debian_testing now or at any time after the release of Debian 10 then I believe this should result in a working install of Debian 10. I just tested it with a minimal install (base system + openssh) and it seems to (still) work. It may be several days after the release before we can get around to updating the labels in the Xen Shell so that "debian_buster" is there and "debian_testing" gets you "bullseye". It does tell you what it's going to install so there should be no confusion. Cheers, Andy -- https://bitfolk.com/ -- No-nonsense VPS hosting
