Title: Migration to a new bigger vps...how?
Post by: garzy69 on February 29, 2020, 04:52:21 PM

Hi there
I'm an italian newbie using the Sparkylinux LXDE 4.9.0

Quotenew Sparky repository public key has been generated so manually intervention is required!
Users of all Sparky versions/editions have to install the new public key as follows:

Code Select Expand
wget -O - https://repo.sparkylinux.org/sparky.gpg.key | sudo apt-key add -

Then update the package list to check does it work:

sudo apt update

Ok I've never done it before but I've followed that instruction and this is the result:

Code Select

garzy69@garzy69:~$ wget -O - https://repo.sparkylinux.org/sparky.gpg.key | sudo apt-key add -

Then? How can I check if it is all right?

Thank you

The absence of error messages proves the correct installation of the new public key.

Thank you very much.
I would ask another thing about Debian managing but I'm afraid to say nonsense.
I come from Lubuntu and I've never used Debian. I saw that others distro have tools to advance automatically to the next version.
So, now I use the version 4 Tyche based on Debian Stretch.
Can I upgrade to version 5 Nibiru based on Debian Buster?
