How to upgrade Debian to SID
Optional: Add sudo
into your user
$ su
# aptitude install sudo
# usermod -a -G sudo [USERNAME]
# exit
Note: If
sudo
don't work, try logout and login again.
- Replace the belowing text into
/etc/apt/sources.list
with your favorite editor. In my case I use
$ sudo vi /etc/apt/sources.list
```bash
deb http://ftp.th.debian.org/debian/ sid main contrib non-free
deb-src http://ftp.th.debian.org/debian/ sid main contrib non-free
deb http://ftp.th.debian.org/debian/ stable main contrib non-free
deb http://ftp.th.debian.org/debian/ testing main contrib non-free
deb http://ftp.th.debian.org/debian/ experimental main contrib non-free
```
