I stated by running "script", so I have a log.1) First things first. Install 'screen' utility into stretch. run 'screen' and do everything else there.
I browsed the man page for "screen". Why use it rather than the MATE terminal?The answer will suggest what I should be aware of as I give it a more detailed read.
It will be useful for me to do a review of how/why use chroot.IOW saying "... you're assumed to choose answers wisely" I will have to "think first rather than repent at leisure" ;/
In case of any trouble (such as network connectivity loss), reestablish your connection and run 'screen -DR'. 2) Mount chroot again (from inside the screen). Ensure you're able to run 'apt-get update' without trouble, as you'll need it. 3) Perform the usual upgrade dance: apt-get upgrade apt-get dist-upgrade The process will ask you questions (many questions, in fact), you're assumed to choose answers wisely ;). Take special care while upgrading grub. 4) Unmount chroot, exit screen (simple 'exit' should do it). 5) Reboot into your brand-new buster installation. Reco
