= How to upgrade Rock 5B Debian 12 Bookworm =

This guide describes, how to upgrade to Debian 12 Bookworm with the Rock 5B, as there exists currently no official Debian 12 image for the Rock 5B [https://docs.radxa.com/en/rock5/official-images | ROCK 5 Official Images].

== Requirement ==

It's necessary to run Debian 11 bullseye on the Rock 5B.

== Procedure ==

To upgrade Debian 11 (bullseye) to Debian 12 (bookworm) read this guide [https://www.debian.org/releases/bookworm/amd64/release-notes/ch-upgrading.en.html Chapter 4. Upgrades from Debian 11 (bullseye)] from the Debian team. Follow the instructions up to chapter [https://www.debian.org/releases/bookworm/amd64/release-notes/ch-upgrading.de.html#obsolete 4.8. Obsolete packages]. Please note the following information.

=== Chapter [https://www.debian.org/releases/bookworm/amd64/release-notes/ch-upgrading.en.html#upgrade-process 4.3. Preparing APT source-list files] ===
Before executing this chapter, all programs that are not part of a pure Debian 11 (bullseye) installation should be uninstalled <code>apt remove</code>. After that, according to the instructions, all sources must be changed from "bullseye" to "bookworm", other source-list files must be removed.

=== Chapter [https://www.debian.org/releases/bookworm/amd64/release-notes/ch-upgrading.en.html#upgrading-full | 4.4.6. Upgrading the system] ===
After successfully executing chapter [https://www.debian.org/releases/bookworm/amd64/release-notes/ch-upgrading.en.html#upgrading-full | 4.4.6. Upgrading the system] and successfully restarting the Rock 5B, an error might occurr: no window has the ability to resize, move or close.

Continue following the instructions until you successfully execute chapter [https://www.debian.org/releases/bookworm/amd64/release-notes/ch-upgrading.de.html#obsolete | 4.8. Obsolete packages] and after successfully reboot Rock 5B, Debian 12 bookworm works fine.

Now Debian 12 bookworm runs on the Rock 5B. 😉

Next all additional installations, that where removed before chapter [https://www.debian.org/releases/bookworm/amd64/release-notes/ch-upgrading.en.html#upgrade-process 4.3. Preparing APT source-list files], can be now reinstalled.

Have fun.
