Ok I ended up doing it like that! (first install a minimal stable
[Jessie], then dist-upgrade to testing [Stretch])
Refnotes
~~~~~~
I loaded the Jessie CD image to a usb stick (dmesg showed me that it's /dev/sdb)
## umount usb, then:
cp jessie.img /dev/sdb && sync
And installed Jessie (without GUI-Desktop Environment).
Then changed /etc/apt/sources.list to use Stretch.
Stretch on USB
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Since I already had the Stretch DVD1 on a USB, I got apt to use that
(instead of the usual way of using a web-repo).
I did that as follows:
I inserted the USB with the DVD-image and dmesg showed me that it's /dev/sdb
Then I did:
mkdir /mnt/dvd1
mount -t iso9660 -o loop /dev/sdb /mnt/dvd1/
## then I commented everything in /etc/apt/sources.list
apt-cdrom --no-auto-detect -m -d=/mnt/dvd1 add # this put a line
into /etc/apt/sources.list
Then:
mount -t iso9660 -o loop /dev/sdb /media/cdrom # needed for: apt-get update
apt-get update
apt-get dist-upgrade
apt-get autoremove
Worked nicely!
Regards
