> # Upgrade
>
> Devuan can be adopted as a flawless upgrade path from both Debian 7
> (Wheezy) and Debian 8 (Jessie). This is a main goal for the Devuan
> Jessie stable release and has proven to be a very stable operation
> every time it has been performed. Detailed installation and upgrade
> instructions are available including translations
> (https://devuan.org/os/documentation/dev1fanboy/).
>
> The Devuan Apt package repositories are:
> ```
> deb http://auto.mirror.devuan.org/merged jessie          main
> deb http://auto.mirror.devuan.org/merged jessie-updates  main
> deb http://auto.mirror.devuan.org/merged jessie-security main
> ```
> We provide access to our package repository also via Tor:
> ```
> deb tor+http://devuanfwojg73k6r.onion/merged jessie          main
> deb tor+http://devuanfwojg73k6r.onion/merged jessie-updates  main
> deb tor+http://devuanfwojg73k6r.onion/merged jessie-security main
> ```

>
> After **replacing** Debian's package sources with the ones above, run:
> ```
> apt-get update
> apt-get install devuan-keyring
> apt-get dist-upgrade
> ```
>
> Then proceed with a reboot, which will keep `sysvinit` as init or
> revert to it in case the machine was running Debian Jessie.

> Additional package repositories are available, but considered

> deb http://auto.mirror.devuan.org/merged jessie-backports        main
> deb http://auto.mirror.devuan.org/merged jessie-proposed-updates main

> Devuan is about choice. We think people should be able to choose

> Devuan decided to fork not only the base distribution, but also its
