Upgrade Debian squeeze to wheezy

December 7, 2012 by Igor Drobot Leave a Comment

Attention this tutorial was written for ARM-Based systems in my case it was a Trim-Slice system, without MBR (without grub). It was a plain Debian without Kernel and boot loader

sed -i "s,squeeze,wheezy,g" /etc/apt/sources.list

sed -i "s,squeeze,wheezy,g" /etc/apt/sources.list

cat /etc/apt/sources.list
deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ wheezy main
deb-src http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ wheezy main
 
deb http://security.debian.org/ wheezy/updates main
deb-src http://security.debian.org/ wheezy/updates main
 
# wheezy-updates, previously known as 'volatile'
deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ wheezy-updates main
deb-src http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ wheezy-updates main

cat /etc/apt/sources.list deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ wheezy main deb-src http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ wheezy main deb http://security.debian.org/ wheezy/updates main deb-src http://security.debian.org/ wheezy/updates main # wheezy-updates, previously known as 'volatile' deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ wheezy-updates main deb-src http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ wheezy-updates main
