Error updating to 6 from 5.4

[LkS45]

Hello!

Following the wifi on: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Upgrade_from_5.x_to_6.0

I got error on this step:
For the no-subscription repository see Package Repositories. It can be something like:

sed -i -e 's/stretch/buster/g' /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pve-install-repo.list

I got this error:
sed: can't read /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pve-install-repo.list: No such file or directory

Any idea to fix that?

And, im not using Ceph, but anyways, i need to execute this step?
(Ceph only) Replace ceph.com repositories with proxmox.com ceph repositories

The 'sed' command simply replaces "stretch" with "buster" in the given file. If it doesn't exist, you can just manually go into your '/etc/apt/sources.list.d' directory and open all existing files to replace "stretch" with "buster". If no files exist, create one using:

echo "deb http://download.proxmox.com/debian/pve buster pve-no-subscription" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pve.list

If you're not using Ceph, the "Ceph only" step is not necessary, but it won't hurt to add it - prevents you from forgetting about it if you ever decide to get into Ceph

Is now my files OK and safe for try update the system?

GNU nano 2.7.4                  File: sources.list

deb http://ftp.br.debian.org/debian buster main contrib
deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian buster-updates main contrib

# security updates
deb http://security.debian.org buster/updates main contrib

GNU nano 2.7.4              File: pve-enterprise.list

deb https://enterprise.proxmox.com/debian/pve buster pve-enterprise

 GNU nano 2.7.4                    File: pve.list

deb http://download.proxmox.com/debian/pve buster pve-no-subscription

GNU nano 2.7.4                 File: pve-test.list

deb http://download.proxmox.com/debian buster pvetest

 

[Stefan_R]

Delete the file "pve-test.list", if you do not want to receive unstable testing updates (if that's what you want then it's fine).

If you do not have an enterprise subscription (there's none linked to your forum profile fwiw), deleting the file "pve-enterprise.list" can prevent some errors and warning from showing up in APT.

pve.list and sources.list look fine.

Looks good to me. You can find a list of the expected versions in our wiki: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Downlo...Proxmox_Virtual_Environment_6.x_to_latest_6.0

And yes, you can uninstall old kernels.
