I tried to 'sysupgrade' this box and a laptop several times yesterday.
All attempts to do so failed.
Attempts to 'sysupgrade' from:
https://mirror.fsmg.org.nz/
failed with the mirror informing me that it must receive such requests
as https, not http. (I did not note the exact wording at the time
sorry.) 404 and 300 were also mentioned.
Attempts to 'sysupgrade' from:
https://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/
failed due to segmentation faults. The output below was captured after
more than one upgrade attempt, some of which included the '-k' switch.

Would the above be due to changes in base that are not yet complete?
TIA for your replies.
