I dunno about BOSS, but its very much possible to upgrade linux mint from repos . Previously there were issues with linux mint debian edition (LMDE) because of the fact that its a rolling distribution , but now they have come up with update packs[1] to solve the issue . If you are curious to experiment . You can keep proper[2] lines in /etc/apt/sources.list and do #apt-get update and #apt-get dist-upgrade 1. LMDE update packs http://blog.linuxmint.com/?p=1781 2. Proper - depending on the distro and sometimes ( with caution ) the parent distro name + release .
