I feel this is a necessary step before *any* update. That's why my systems use
boot SSD's and I make a copy (I use Image for Linux but dd would do).
I've updated both Buster (from Slavek's preliminary builds) and Stretch (from
the regular repositories) with no real problem.
As William Morder says, run dpkg-reconfigure tdm-trinity before reboot, Debian
get's updated too (new kernel) and reverts to some Debian DM (lightdm or gdm3
here). Nasty Debian way...
Updating without a sound backup is a risky way of life.
