ASAS Compatibility

ASAS is compatible with all Debian and Ubuntu versions that support the new apt binary. For Ubuntu that support began with 14.x and Debian 8.x. The script is fully tested on these releases and their descendants. I will only support releases that are still supported via security updates by the maintainer although the script may still work on EOL (End of Life) releases it is not recommended to use these releases in any environment, upgrade dammit!

ASAS is meant for server environments so make sure to use server images (Ubuntu) or Netinst as server (Debian) IE: no desktop environment or print server installed. Do not use graphical install for Debian not suitable for servers.

  • Ubuntu Support
    • Ubuntu 18.04
    • Ubuntu 18.10
    • Ubuntu 19.04
    • Ubuntu 19.10
    • Ubuntu 20.04
    • Releases before Ubuntu 14 do not support apt binary and therefore are incompatible.

  • Debian Support
    • Debian 9.x
    • Debian 10.x
    • Releases before Debian 8 do not support apt binary and therefore are incompatible.

I will not support, for modification, any release that has surpassed EOL status. If anyone would like to port or fork for other Debian based systems be my guest. if you MUST have this for an older release you can start by altering every instance of apt to apt-get, but its not worth the trouble believe me, just upgrade already.
