Planning to update to debian trixie on my CM3588, is this possible?

About a year ago, I installed the OpenMediaVault image for CM3588-NAS from here: https://www.armbian.com/nanopc-cm3588-nas/ The image is debian-bookworm, which has since become oldstable, while trixie is the new stable.

 

Is it possible to upgrade the distribution and move to trixie packages, even though there are no trixie images for CM3588-NAS? In theory this seems completely feasible as my apt configurations seem completely standard with something like 

deb http://deb.debian.org/debian bookworm main contrib non-free non-free-firmware

and

deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/armbian.gpg] http://apt.armbian.com bookworm main bookworm-utils bookworm-desktop

 

If I attempt the upgrade, will I run into problems with some packages (like armbian-bsp-cli-cm3588-nas-vendor or linux-image-vendor-rk35xx) not actually existing for the target release and platform and just end up bricking my system?

Kernel packages comes from the same (main) repository. This won't cause you problems, if you upgrade from bookworm to trixie, but we can't guarantee for packages that comes from Debian.

 

You might try this way:
https://docs.armbian.com/User-Guide_Armbian-Config/System/#stable-distro-upgrade

Note that you might need to download updated Armbian key:
 

wget -qO - https://apt.armbian.com/armbian.key | gpg --dearmor | \
sudo tee /usr/share/keyrings/armbian.gpg > /dev/null
cat << EOF | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/armbian-config.sources > /dev/null
Types: deb
URIs: https://github.armbian.com/configng
Suites: stable
Components: main
Signed-By: /usr/share/keyrings/armbian.gpg
EOF
