Debian Wheezy on B2 possible?

[paulchany]

Hi,

I have the Bubba Two hardware, and I'm running on it the Debian Squeeze operating system so far.
I have installed Squeeze by following these steps described here:
http://forum.mybubba.org/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=2518

Now since Wheezy is out as stable release, I want to upgrade my Squeeze system to Wheezy.

Is it possible to do this by following advices from here:
http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/p ... ng.en.html

From where can I install the kernel for the Wheezy system?

My apt sources.list is:
deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian squeeze main
deb http://security.debian.org/ squeeze/updates main
deb http://update.excito.org/ marielle main

I have installed already the bubba-kernel: version 2.6.39.4-4 which is compatible with the Wheezy system, I believe.

I changed my sources.list to:

Code: Select all

deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian squeeze main
deb http://security.debian.org/ squeeze/updates main
deb http://update.excito.org/ stable main

Now I'm at Chapter '4.2.2. Disabling APT pinning' and want to setup configuration properly so I can to upgrade debian packages to Wheezy.

I have in /etc/apt/preferences.d/ only one file, called 'excito':

Code: Select all

Well, these lines are a black magic for me.
Must I change here something, to allow the upgrade of packages?

I have upgraded my Squeeze system to Wheezy, reboot it and it works so far.

I deleted after upgrade the /etc/apt/preferences.d/excito file. Is this right to do?
