Crunchbang Waldorf is already released based on Debian Wheezy. You have nothing to worry about if your sources pin to Waldorf what is the default.Debian Testing is now Jessie. Your dist-upgrade depends on if you are running Waldorf or Testing, in both cases you should upgrade to stay current.
What is the proper way to upgrade Ubuntu chroot environment to a newer Ubuntu release? The chroot environment has been originally set up using debootstrap.
The proper way to upgrade a Ubuntu server is to use do-release-upgrade command.
Ubuntu is based on Debian.
I currently run Statler on my laptop, but now I'm looking to install Crunchbang on my desktop. I was wondering whether I should install Statler or the latest beta on my desktop. If I install Statler, how easy will updating to Waldorf be in the future? I've never done an upgrade beyond just updating packages before. Will the move to Waldorf be simple as that?
As I'm sure many here will remember, whenever a new "point release" of Statler came out, the most reliable upgrade path was, unfortunately, a clean install. Has anyone heard anything about Corenominal developing a more painless upgrade path for getting from Statler to Waldorf? (Perhaps a script?)Looks like someone's recently tried such an upgrade through editing sou

Should I resort to re-installing #! now, or are there other things I can do to try and fix this?Is it Waldorf or Statler you use? If it`s Statler you probably would want to upgrade to Waldorf anyway, now that Waldorf is the new stable release.
New release 'oneiric' available.
Run 'do-release-upgrade' to upgrade to it.

Checking for a new ubuntu release
No new release found
why does it say there is an upgrade then says it does not find it?
I have been slowly upgrading from 9x to 11.04. I had some issues along the way but nothing google could not help me with.
I'm running #! Statler. Waldorf testing images have recently been made available by corenominal. I understand that it is not possible to upgrade from my Statler install to Waldorf. I'd like to know why/how that is not possible. Ubuntu 11.10 can be upgraded to 12.04; Debian 6 can be upgraded (?) to Debian 7. I understand that #!
I have a cluster of about 50 ubuntu nodes which are currently running maverick release. I'd like to upgrade them to oneiric, but I'm having a difficulty choosing the right tools.
I know ubuntu has the 'unattended-upgrade' utility, but it's only meant for security upgrades and cannot switch the whole release.
If corenominal doesn't make any major changes to the Waldorf package suite, you should be able to just leave everything alone and dist-upgrade every now and then. When Wheezy goes stable, Waldorf will track it.I predict that corenominal will release a final live ISO after Wheezy goes stable, but that will primarily be to minimize the packages that need to be downloaded/updated on the fi
