KatolaZ, thank you for sharing the link to the ceres netinst image. All of my devuan installations get upgraded to ceres, so starting them there would be easier.

Hello to all!
I am a new Devuan user, with a fresh installation of ASCII. May I ask two (naives) questions?
1) which file from the links above is the net installation for Beowulf?
and
2) is there any "authoritative" way to pass from ASCII to Beowulf?
Thank you very much in advance.

Hi gop,

Beowulf has not been released. If you are familiar with the Debian way of dealing with releases, Beowulf is more or less equivalent to a Debian/testing. Hence, there are no official installation images for it yet. There is only a stripped-down testing minimal iso that can be used to perform a netinst. It is available at:

https://pkgmaster.devuan.org/devuan/dis … t/mini.iso

If you want to upgrade an existing ascii to beowulf, you can use as a reference the guide provided at:

https://devuan.org/os/documentation/dev … e-to-ascii

noting that you are not upgrading from jessie to ascii, rather from ascii to beowulf. If you spot any bug in beowulf, please report it.

HTH

Beowulf has not been released yet so no official isos available. There are some test images here:
https://pkgmaster.devuan.org/devuan/dis … nt/images/
and here:
https://pkgmaster.devuan.org/devuan/dis … s/netboot/
YMMV depending on your usecase.
I installed some months ago using the mini.iso

No. What makes you think that?
Probably the line that says systemd-238 (is that like uranium?) is in ceres and 232 is in testing.
I can assure you it's not in either of those repos. ("No candidate version found for systemd")

Phew! That's exactly the line that made me grinch a little.

Thanks
