i have installed debian (buster) on userland app (UserLAnd is an open-source app which allows you to run several Linux distributions like Ubuntu,
Debian, and Kali.)

i am keen to upgrade to bullseye.
my action:
* sudo apt-get update && apt-get full-upgrade
* sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list: replace buster with bullseye
* sudo apt-get update && apt-get upgrade && apt-get dist-upgrade

am i missing on something. i have limited data plan. hence, requesting opinion or suggestions here.

regards,
agyaan

Have you read the release notes? That should be considered an
obligatory step.

Regards,

Hi Agyaan

One thing you _have_ to do is check your /etc/apt/sources.list as this changed
slightly between buster and bullseye - https://wiki.debian.org/SourcesList
refers to the changes.

With every good wish, as ever,

In addition to suggestion from Andrew you should skim through Bullseye's
release notes¹.

One suggestion then would be to uninstall any software you're not using
so it doesn't have to be updated and use up your data plan. The release
notes cover some other cleanup tasks as well.

I also like to make sure I have enough disk space for the update, this
is also covered in the release notes.
