the shell, but might break. Further more, all my upgrades are done locally. I do not have the luxury of having a remote serial console with those nasty pci cards that can put even the BIOS to go through the serial. I can live with it. Will not recommend people anymore to change
Who said you need to have serial console to do remote upgrades. Yes it might be nice, but hey, I have a truck load of servers without remote console access and I sure upgrade them remotely as well without a problem. I just did it again for 3.9 and because I always use one service per servers, like mail, or dns, or smtp, or www, etc. One applications per servers, making the upgrade is so easy and doing remote, the first one take me more time, but after that, may be 15 to 20 minutes max each. And sometimes, I do multiples at once. So easy!
You got to love OpenBSD! Regards, Daniel
