Devuan Beowulf has been very stable for me; and now that the issue with
ldap-heimdal-kerberos has been resolved (see other thread), everything works
without a hitch. I will assume that Debian Buster is also pretty stable,
although myself I have preferred to avoid the abominable systemd and stick
with init on Devuan. (Devuan is now more Debian, philosophically speaking,
than Debian itself.)
I don't know where Gene stands on that question of Debian systemd versus
Devuan init, but I'll leave that to himself to decide. As a fellow cranky
oldster, I don't care so much for change, and tend to stick with the
tried-and-true (hint, hint) such as Devuan init.
The only possible "showstopper" that I would mention is that the wireless
networking has changed slightly. Wherever this detail matters in your setup,
remember that wlan0 in versions Jessie and earlier becomes wlx00027288d1fd
for myself; I don't know if the characters following wlx are the same for
everybody or just me, but you need to get that part right.
It was a big headache when I tried to upgrade to Ascii(=Stretch), and in fact
I never did get wireless networking system with it, but kept falling back to
Jessie until Jessie was no longer supported. It was a little messy upgrading
straight from Jessie to Beowulf(=Buster) because I was skipping over
Ascii/Stretch, but after a few weeks of ironing out the wrinkles, it runs
better than Jessie ever did, and I've been running Beowulf with almost no
issues since at least a year or more past.
