    HowTo: Upgrade Debian 5.

    0 (Lenny) To
    Debian 6.0 (Squeeze)

    Debian 6.0 "Squeeze" has been released and how do I upgrade to Debian GNU/Linux
    6.0 from the previous release, Debian GNU/Linux 5.0 ("Lenny") using command
    prompt?

    Debian 6.0 introduces a dependency based boot system, making system start-up faster
    and more robust due to parallel execution of boot scripts and correct dependency
    tracking between them. Upgrades to Debian GNU/Linux 6.0 from the previous release,
    Debian GNU/Linux 5.0 (codenamed "Lenny"), are automatically handled by the apt-get
    package management tool for most configurations.

    Make a backup - it cannot be stressed enough how important it is to make a backup of


    your system before you do this. Most of the actions listed in this post are written with
    the assumption that they will be executed by the root user running the bash or any other
    modern shell. The official Debian document recommends:

    The main things you'll want to back up are the contents of /etc, /var/lib/dpkg,
    /var/lib/apt/extended_states and the output of dpkg --get-selections "*" (the quotes are
    important). If you use aptitude to manage packages on your system, you will also want
    to back up /var/lib/aptitude/pkgstates.
    The following insutctions are tested on 64 bit version only but should work with 32 bit
    system. Edit the file called /etc/apt/sources.list, enter:

    # vi /etc/apt/sources.list

    Find word lenny and replace with squeeze. At the end it should look as follows:

    deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ squeeze main


    deb-src http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ squeeze main

    deb http://security.debian.org/ squeeze/updates main


    deb-src http://security.debian.org/ squeeze/updates main

    deb http://volatile.debian.org/debian-volatile squeeze/volatile main


    deb-src http://volatile.debian.org/debian-volatile squeeze/volatile
    main

    Save and close the file. Type the following command:

    # apt-get update
    # apt-get install apt dpkg aptitude
    # apt-get dist-upgrade

    Finally, reboot the server:

    # reboot

    After reboot make sure all required ports are open and all services are running:

    # lsb_release -a
    # netstat -tulpn
    # tail -f /var/log/messages
    # tail -f /path/to/log/file
