My first failed attempt was:
- edit /etc/apt/sources.list
- apt update
- apt upgrade or apt dist-upgrade (don't remember exactly)
After that, the system was broken.
So, I've used dd to restore the original mrfixit Debian.
After that, I've done something like:
- edit /etc/apt/sources.list
- apt update
- apt install package
I've repeated to install package by package, fixed conflicts by hand (don't remember al the details), until everything was upgraded.
Note, that I don't recommend this. It was fun to do , but for example my webcam doesn't work (don't need it) and I'm sure there are other things broken too.
I've also installed dwm, so that I have a "desktop environment" that suits me best...
You should also hold back xorg as that is custom.
