Bookworm — the new version of Raspberry Pi OS - Raspberry Pi
www.raspberrypi.com
It's an odd-numbered year, so there is a new major Debian release, and we are now releasing the corresponding version of Raspberry Pi OS.

    Without thinking or reading to the last paragraph of this article, I went and started a dist-upgrade on my pi.

    Curious now to see if it still boots after it’s finished.

    Edit: Oops

      One thing Debian introduced recently: apt upgrade --without-new-pkgs and they recommend that before a full dist-upgrade. I think it’s made a pretty big difference in the upgrade smoothness, eliminating some possibly-breaking package upgrades.

      edit: I say recently but I mean new-to-me

      I haven’t tried this, but maybe ssh -t "rm /var/cache/apt/archives/*deb" or something like to clear up some space would work.

      I have plenty of space, as the OS boots from a 256 GB SSD and a very minimal install. I may try to dist-upgrade after a backup.

        As a followup, I just changed the repos and did the apt full upgrade. Everything works beautifully. But as I said, I had a very minimal headless install without any DE.

    Ah, shit… The only way to update is to reimage/reinstall… It’ll take a couple of days for me.

    I did an in place upgrade to testing about a month ago on my PIs after running Bookworm on x86 VMs since it came out. Worked fine for me but my usage is pretty light compared to some as they are headless servers for me and I can rebuild really quickly if I had needed to from backups.

    Today I had a shed load of updates per PI, about 160 packages so I guessed it had gone live.

    Why would they change the name instead of the version number? 🤦‍♂️

      Based on Debian. I’m a bit confused though because I’ve been running a Bookworm-based version of the Raspberry Pi OS for some time (I switched from Bullseye maybe a year ago) because I thought that was the current version. Is this a second Bookworm-based release, or did I inadvertently jump the gun and run something that was pre-release until now? The Pis did receive some kind of big distribution upgrade this week, but it was from Bookworm to Bookworm.

        Yeah this is some bonkers mental leaps people are making. It’s not like RPiOS is telling Microsoft anything you’re doing. It’s out there for installing and maintaining Visual Code much more easily.

      Not sure why people downvoted this. It’s true and it’s fucked up.

      Luckily I never used their os.
