Question about upgrade kernel

I am using Devuan 10 (Buster) with kernel 5.10.0-0.bpo.12-686-pae - but Debian repository shows newer kernels such as linux-headers-5.10.0-13-686-pae. Would it be safe to upgrade kernel using those seen in Debian 11 (Bullseye)?

Thanks in advance.

Re: Question about upgrade kernel

Don't mix up kernels (linux-image) with kernel headers (linux-headers).

You should not consider mixing distros.

My suggestion is to consider upgrading to Chimaera.

You are right, overlooked that.
