When I have to install a new box, I always take the latest stable version I get, do a pure base system install, then edit /etc/apt/sources.list to read "unstable" instead of the stable version name, e.g:
# cat /etc/apt/sources.list deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ unstable main contrib non-free deb-src http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ unstable main contrib non-free Then I do: # apt-get update # apt-get dist-upgrade # apt-get upgrade This worked for the last years. It may be that you have to repeat the above steps in order to resolve all dependencies which may be broken during the distribution upgrade, but usually this works quite well. I'm running Debian GNU/Linux unstable since 1997, BTW. ;-) Greetings, Stefan On Tue, 04 Oct, Michael Herger wrote: > > Debian amd64. > > Are you running unstable?
