how do ensure security updates for wheezy though?
There are no security upgrades for Wheezy. But that's not much of an issue for my two Wheezy machines. One is a television server (for over-the-air broadcast TV). The other is my phonetop, which I use as an alternative desktop, but rarely use to browse the internet.sickpig wrote:how do ensure security updates for wheezy though?
Backup the system before upgrading then. But you already have a full backup, right?sickpig wrote:i fear the upgrade might change or break something.
