Unfortunately, meanwhile I figured out that the error message was due to a corrupt /etc/rc.upgrade (read error, I presume the flash is fried). I've copied it over from a known good 1.2.2 installation, and tried the console upgrade from URL. Watching bsdtar, and praying, here. Damn, bsdtar just died (or finished correctly), and the firewall is now rebooting. Wish me luck. The firewall did come up correctly, though of course I have no way to tell whether the upgrade process checked the integrity of the upgrade before rebooting. Given filesystem or flash corruption I should probably redo everything with 1.2.3 final, using a fresh 4 GByte flash. How far from production is 2.0 meanwhile? I presume RC1 won't come this year yet? -- Eugen* Leitl a href=http://leitl.org;leitl/a http://leitl.org __ ICBM: 48.07100, 11.36820 http://www.ativel.com http://postbiota.org 8B29F6BE: 099D 78BA 2FD3 B014 B08A 7779 75B0 2443 8B29 F6BE - To unsubscribe, e-mail: discussion-unsubscr...@pfsense.com For additional commands, e-mail: discussion-h...@pfsense.com Commercial support available - https://portal.pfsense.org
