I tried to delete /var/db/freebsd-update folder, but it changes 
nothing.

Same error.
I found older posts with people searching in the code which function

Does anyone have some hints or direction to follow ?

What is the exact command line you are running that gets this error?

I'm exactly using :

freebsd-update -r 8.1-RELEASE upgrade

I'm sticking the manual, but using a custom kernel. At this stage this 
should change nothing.


# uname 
-a 
[r...@backup]
FreeBSD backup.cyanide-studio.com 8.0-RELEASE-p1 FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE-p1 
#3: Mon Dec  7 14:44:37 CET 2009 
r...@backup.cyanide-studio.com:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GEOMKERNEL  amd64


I installed the 8.0-RELEASE from CDs, as you can see I updated to 
patchlevel 1 without trouble.


The only difference from other systems may be these geom drivers.

Here is the complete command output,
I said yes to the first question to show you how bad the question is :
