Upgrading from Debian 9 "Stretch" to Debian 10 "Buster"

And by "upgrade," I mean backing up my files and doing a complete D&R (delete and reinstall). 

Because upgrading from one version to the next is complicated, and runs a high risk of hosing your system.



Especially if you have non-free software or software from third-party repos. Which I have.

My Lenovo requires a non-free firmware blob for the AMD graphics accelerator.

I've also let people persuade me to install Skype and other third party shit on it. No more of that.

The only third-party software I'll be using from now on is Etcher, and I won't install that until I need it.
