    I have been running OpenBSD on three apu2 boards (as firewalls) for several 
years and doing remote (ssh to boards) with no problems.

    Doing the 7.4 to 7.5 upgrades I had an initial success then two failures. 
Not confidence building since these firewalls are at remote sites.

    Not sure where the problem lies, here is what I've experienced:

    pcEngines apu2 boards, running sysupgrade - have been running OpenBSD
    since about 6.2 and doing remote (ssh to board) for several releases
    w/o any problems

    Did successful sysupgrade on one board the evening before 7.5 release
    notification using: url https://cdn.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/ 
<https://cdn.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/> (other
    mirrors not yet showing items in 7.5 directory)

    Went fine, as per norm.

    Next day did on a second board using my default url (as per all previous
    remote upgrades) https://mirrors.sonic.net/pub/OpenBSD/ 
<https://mirrors.sonic.net/pub/OpenBSD/>

    after syspugrade pings ok but cannot ssh:
    ssh: connect to host 10.42.xx.xx port 22: Connection refused

    used minicom to hook up to serial port and was able to see (didn't
    require login??):

    reboot from serial console with minicom

    Comes back up (can ssh now) but with only one cpu (normally running mp - 
cpu[0-3] )

    reboot

    Watching on serial port

    reorder_kernel: failed -- see /usr/share/relink/kernel/GENERIC/relink.log

    as per log: run 'sha256 -h /var/db/kernel.SHA256 /bsd'

    reboot, no error, but still in single cpu mode.

    reboot bsd.mp

    hang, ssh connection refused

    Power cycle to get fresh reboot but still hangs

    still on serial port: boot usb with miniroot75.img

    reboot - needed to reset - 'stty com0 115200; set tty com0', otherwise hangs

    Choose upgrade

    Success!

    This happened on a third apu2 board; thus, two unsucessful and one 
successful sysupgrades on apu2 boards

    Any ideas/pointers? I'd like this not to reoccur.
