Upgrading from Kubuntu 18.04 (Bionic) to Debian 10 (Buster) using Arch

The following describes how you can upgrade a running Kubuntu 18.04 to Debian 10 without having to format the root partition (which usually also contains /home).

This might sounds complicated at first, but it really isn't. Note that this is using Arch because why not, but you only need a distro on a bootable drive which is not the one being upgraded; Ubuntu or Debian would work as well.

Also, obviously:

• only a fool would try that without proper backups;
• this comes with no guarantee of any kind (if it breaks and you lose all your data, it's your own fault).
