oldstable on physical:
$ echo $(lsb_release -d; uname -m; isvirtual) | sed -e 's/^Description: //'
Debian GNU/Linux 9.12 (stretch) x86_64 physical Precision M6600
$
Most all my other Debian installations have been upgraded to
stable (just did a few more VMs within the last 24 hours or so).
My laptop is typically about last on the major upgrades ...
as I use it quite heavily and pretty dang dependent upon it,
and it's native install on the physical.  So, I generally wait
and hope I've flushed out any upgrade issues, before I get to
that hardware.  And I may still also emulate that upgrade
first on VM (with suitable configuration and packages, etc.).
But yea, probably within the next few weeks, or so, I'll likely
upgrade that host to Debian stable ... sort'a kind'a overdue at
this point.
