  • sudo aptitude install debian-keyring debian-archive-keyring
  • Modify the file /etc/apt/sources.list – change “wheezy” to “jessie” in the first line, so it reads “deb
  • http://mirrordirector.raspbian.org/raspbian/ jessie main contrib non-free rpi”

  • Modify the file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/raspi.list – change “wheezy” to “jessie” in the first line and add “ ui” to the end of that line, so it reads “deb http://archive.raspberrypi.org/debian jessie main ui”
  • Create the directory /home/pi/.config/autostart by typing “mkdir /home/pi/.config/autostart” in a terminal. (Note the . in front of config.)
  • Type “sudo apt-get update” in a terminal to update the apt index files.
  • Type “sudo apt-get dist-upgrade” to start the upgrade process – this will take a couple of hours. Whenever prompted to update a file during this process, choose the Y option to accept the new file; if you don’t want to be bothered with these prompts, then call apt-get with the -y option – “sudo apt-get -y dist-upgrade”.
