Marks Rpi Cluster is continuing to run 24/7 and getting through work. Its doing Einstein. Asteroids still haven't re-applied their Pi optimizations so I am sticking with Einstein for the time being.
Rpi OS based on Debian trixie
Debian Trixie is due for release on the 9th of August. Raspberry Pi OS is based on Debian. The Rpi foundation said that they aren't likely to have any major updates until they upgrade to Trixie. Last time Debian updated (approx 2 years ago) there was quite a few months before Raspberry Pi OS caught up so hopefully it won't take too long this time.
Most of my Pi's run headless (no screen and keyboard) and I run the "lite" version which doesn't include a desktop environment so I probably won't see much change, although there are a lot of improvements to apt, the package manager that Debian use.
I will be trying it on a Pi5 first to see what works and what has changed before imaging a bunch of SD cards. To do the EC12's I will have to open up each one to get to the SD card slots on each Pi. I do a clean install from scratch rather than attempting to upgrade from the previous OS. Earlier versions of Rpi OS didn't officially support upgrading the operating system.
