After appling this patch I do have the first issue.
An upgrade OpenBSD inside VM from 7.3 to 7.4 leads to garbage inside
/etc/groups. This file contains some binar data instead groups.
Upgrade were made via sysupgrade and VM simple doesn't return from the boot.
After reset and start with console it complained as:
pf enabled
starting network
reordering: ld.soinstall: unknown group bininstall: unknown group bin
sshd(failed).
install: unknown group utmp
starting early daemons: syslogd pflogd ntpd.
starting RPC daemons:.
kvm_mkdb: can't find kmem group: Undefined error: 0
savecore: no core dump
checking quotas: done.
chown: group is invalid: wheel
clearing /tmp
kern.securelevel: 0 -> 1
creating runtime link editor directory cache.
preserving editor files.
starting network daemons: sshd(failed) smtpd sndiod.
starting local daemons: cron(failed).
after that I've stop it again and restarted with console to boot it with -s
where I discover that:
# cat /etc/group
fG???V?y
X???Gm?V?+?(l?]?I??.??B?????NF?d?6??pV?>??Ob64?MXXg?
so,
# mount -uw /
# mount /usr
# mount /var
# tar -xzvf /var/sysmerge/etc.tgz ./etc/group
was enough to boot it again, but now I a bit scary :)
Shall I revert the patch or it isn't related, or?
