Happy to hear that. It's a good idea to read the release notes because there are always a few "gotchas" with each new release.

Great, all went well!

I wasn't aware of the differences between unstable and stable with the apt thing.

Thank you very much.

From the beowulf release notes:

If you are already on Beowulf, just run this command to get to the
current release version:
apt update && apt dist-upgrade
The first time you do this after Beowulf has gone Stable, you will get
a warning that the repository changed its 'Suite' value from 'testing'
to 'stable'. Answer 'yes' to proceed. Note that aptitude or apt-get will
fail this first time. Only apt will ask you to accept the change.

Make it speak English with

# LC_ALL=C apt-get update

And if you use this instead then it will ask for confirmation then continue with the update:

# apt update

Hi,

I just installed Devuan 3 on an external hdd.
Upon reboot I wasn't able to get wifi with WICD. I had to add wlan0 in the preferences. Most people won't know how to do it, finally, the wifi worked.

However, this is not the principal problem. I want to update the os after install. When i do so, this message appear :

# apt-get update

Sorry for the french speaking terminal, I'm french-canadian!

I'm not very good at computer things so it must be simple for me.
Thank you,
