Yes u can update it.

sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

sudo sed -i 's/jessie/stretch/g' /etc/apt/sources.list

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

sudo apt-get autoremove

sudo reboot

Upgrading works, but consumes a lot of time. Providng a debian stretch-image for a headless-server would come handy.

[Thore-Krug]

I will take a look on it.

[gstammw]

Great, thank you. We also need a new kernel or at least security patches for the existing kernel image, because stretch doesn't bringt an image for C.H.I.P.

[Thore-Krug]

Too be clear the NAND Driver is closed source so we cant expect new Kernel Versions to run on Chip, u could run it from a USB Stick though. What i want is to build a new flashable Image with a new debootstrap of stretch or buster.
