How to upgrade from Debian 13 to 14?

[Mike-BTU]

I would appreciate some advice on how to upgrade my Debian 13.6 installation to Debian 14.

Debian is fully up-to-date.

I just launched Foxclone via Ventoy, and the relevant partitions are now being copied to an external 5gb USB HD.

So once that is finished, I'll be ready to upgrade. What's the best way to do that? TIA.

I'll be darned if I could find an answer, either here or in two different search engines. I suppose I could do an AI search.

So help me, I know I read —somewhere— that Forky (14) is ready. But the (out of date? Retracted?) Debian Wiki says nothing. I'm confused.

There is no Debian 14. It will be ready when it's ready. Trixie (13) is still the latest stable version. Forky is Testing, and will be until it's ready, and that is expected to be in about a year, summer of 2027. If you want to upgrade now, you can just change sources file from Trixie to Forky and update/upgrade to Testing. I would not recommend doing that now.

Thank you. I don't know where I read that Forky was released as stable. Maybe I dreamed it, or have Alzheimer's.

Captain Sully Sullenberger just announced that he is in the early stages of Alzheimer's. Too bad.
