I am running into similar issues upgrading from ASUS Tinkerboard S R2.0, from DEBIAN TinkerOS 10.10 (Buster) c to Bullseye. ASUS has not bothered to release a Bullseye version and it is really frustrating. Were you able to successfully upgrade to Bullseye. I changed /etc/apt/sources.list as per standard Debian Buster to Bullseye procedures, but upgrade or full upgrade does not even start and dont see any attempt to upgrade (silently exits).
I did --
apt update after updating /etc/apt/sources.list to bullseye as per standard instructions on Debian website.
went through fine.
then apt upgrade -- silently exits with no error, says everything is upto--date and upgraded. Then I try apt full-upgrade, silently exits with no error.
/etc/os-release or /etc/debian_version still shows 10.10 !! What am I missing?
Please post the steps for upgrading ASUS Tinker OS (S R2.0 hardware) from Buster to Bullseye. I would really appreciate your help.
Here is what I tried --
apt-get update
Complained about mender.list under /etc/apt/sources.list.d/
So, I moved over /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mender.list to a temporary location
, then tried apt update
It did the update , but prompted me do 'autoremove', which I did.
I did apt update again.
It went through fine.
I did apt upgrade after this --
apt-get upgrade

/etc/os-release is still at 10.10 - would like to upgrade to Bullseye (11.X) -- did not work.
Need your help to get this upgrade completed, it is critical for us to get to latest stable Debian with ASUS Tinkerboard S R2.0, but so many challenges it seems.
Thanks for your help.
Thanks
