  Tom,

  look at /etc/apt/sources.list and see what it says.

  if there are lines in there with buster or stable
on them then you should already be all set up to do 
an update followed by and upgrade or full-upgrade 
with apt.

  (as root or via sudo)

  i know some people do automatic upgrades so perhaps
your system is already up to date, but i can't tell that
from here.  :)

  if any of the commands above do strange things or
recommend you do something you don't like then don't
answer them Y and let us know what is up and someone 
can lend a further hand.

  since buster is now stable there may not be any
updates to it until some security updates or some point 
releases happen (i.e. the above commands may not 
show any thing needing to be done).
