Title: DEBIAN 13 and up to date kernel version
Post by: oly on September 20, 2026, 11:46:37 AM
Hi here,

As mentionned here (https://www.debian.org/releases/index.en.html),  Debian 12 (Bookworm) became EOL by end of 2026-07.
When Olimex will make a Debian 13 image available ?

Moreover, what about using such an old version of the Linux Kernel in the last published Olimex Debian 12 Image (https://repository.olimex.com/dists/bookworm/main/binary-armhf/Packages) ? Any fresher one to come ?

EDIT:
I just dd on a SD Card, the so called image : A20-OLinuXino-bookworm-minimal-20260323-113959.img

The /etc/os-release file contains this informations :
PRETTY_NAME="Debian GNU/Linux 11 (bullseye)"
NAME="Debian GNU/Linux"
VERSION_ID="11"
VERSION="11 (bullseye)"
VERSION_CODENAME=bullseye
(...)

wich is consistant with the mentionned kernel version, but not with the image file name.

What is the point of this strange settings ?
