Ah damn, the "9.1" was a typo from me. I experimented with both Stretch and the testing installations under VirtualBox. My post was about "testing" which is now "buster", installed from: debian-testing-i386-netinst.iso > Isn't Buster the same as testing for the next 2 years, give and take > a few months? So there will be no change. Have I missed > something? I wanted to experiment about how Debian testing works as a rolling distro. I have read some people do it successfully. I have good experiences of other rolling distros myself, namely Manjaro and SparkyLinux. SparkyLinux is based on Debian testing but it has no proper installer with memory < 1GB. :( Now having a rolling Debian is not the main issue, it is more about problem solving.

There was "buster" and I changed it to "testing" as advertised here: https://wiki.debian.org/DebianTesting It should be possible by all logic. Why isn't it? Can you reproduce the problem? I am curious what exactly happens. > PS I still have a VHS of Juha Kankunen and his Lancia 037! > It is the first thing that flashes in my head when I hear Juha. :) Juha M.
