But you should keep in mind, that Kodi v19 will never be available for Stretch

At this very moment I am trying it on the pi3 xbian build (the one with the sql db on it) so will see how it goes.

I do think I found where I went wrong with this though

In /etc/apt/sources.list.d/xbian.list I had changed rpi2-stretch to rpi2-buster, but didn't chage armv7l-stretch
to armv7l-buster, so no wonder it got it's knickers in a twist!

Maybe I'll try the first one again when I get time.

After trying again as above I get to this point and select YES.

Then this happens and the ssh connection is disconnected...... Is this right

Restarting services possibly affected by the upgrade:
smbd: restarting...done.
openbsd-inetd: restarting...

Both reporting version as buster now, but I am getting this....
