Hi Ben,

do you know when approximately will the Debian project announce the version of the new kernel?

The Debian project will announce it when Debian 10 is released. :-) But the kernel team will obviously make the decision long before then. I will propose to use 4.19 and I don't anticipate any disagreement with that.

Hello ABB,

According what my best friend (google.com) in similar affairs says:
https://linuxhint.com/debian-10-release-date/

*In a recent announcement, the Debian team stated, ?In order to minimize the freeze length, we have shortened the transition freeze by one month.? As such, the transition freeze of Debian 10 is planned on January 12, 2019, with Buster?s soft-freeze scheduled for February 12.?We do not have a fixed release date, but, given the cadence of previous releases, it is likely that the release date will be some time mid-2019. We certainly hope to improve the length of the full freeze, and you can help with that by ensuring that you are ready for these milestones,? added the Debian team in the same announcement.*

Best Regards,
Zoran

I finally got to the point that I can upgrade my custom VBox VM with Lava sans Vagrant from preseeded Debian 9 to Debian 10.

Here is what I got (empirically):

root at stretch1-hostname:~# cat /etc/os-release PRETTY_NAME="Debian GNU/Linux buster/sid" NAME="Debian GNU/Linux"
ID=debian
HOME_URL="https://www.debian.org/" SUPPORT_URL="https://www.debian.org/support" BUG_REPORT_URL="https://bugs.debian.org/"
root at stretch1-hostname:~# uname -a
Linux stretch1-hostname 4.19.0-1-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.19.12-1 (2018-12-22) x86_64 GNU/Linux
root at stretch1-hostname:~#

Cheers,
Zoran
