dear Olimex, is there a plan (and a timeline) for availability of images for Debian 12 (Bookworm) for A20 boards?
(I have a A20-OLinuXino-LIME ).
Thanks. a.

For what it's worth it, I'm now running Bookworm from generic debian on Lime2 for over a year and it's rock stable. May not support all olimex nitty gritties on the board but it works for me running a fileserver (1T SSD) on one server, one server with BackupPC and one with Homeassistant.

Armbian also has "unsupported"
bookworm based image for Lime2 with kernel version currently 6.12.

It seems that there are Olimex bookworm images now:

It also seems that they contain only the old kernel versions from Bullseye:

How secure are those old kernels?
