Hi Dedaco, I _think_ that the issue of how to upgrade has been covered. The release notes cover new features / removed software: the installation notes cover features of the installation. https://www.debian.org/releases/bullseye/amd64/release-notes/ has https://www.debian.org/releases/bullseye/amd64/release-notes/ch-upgrading.en.html#upgrade-to-debian-oldrelease and section 4.2 covers this in detail. The instqallation guide is probably not so relevant once you have a running Debian system. Since the release on June 14th or so, this has been extensively covered in threads here on this list as people have hit problems but I agree, we could always do more. It has been repeated a few times in different places that you can't jump a release straightforwardly, so it has to be 9 -> 10 -> 11. Having remade all the steps - do you now have a working system now? [I'm busy fighting with a system that hasn't been upgraded in a while and has flaky hardware at the moment: it's often hard to see where problems are coming from when you are in the middle of them.] All the very best, as ever, Andy Cater
