Netgate doesn't have a download for Plus so one needs to request the image from TAC
Just to clarify - this would only be for netgate appliances - I am not aware of generic install for non netgate devices.
If your running say for example a netgatte 6100 or 5100 or like me an older 4860, then sure you can get image from TAC, and they are normally johnny on the spot in answering with a link to the download.

That's what I was trying to say (by the "no"...), without enough coffee. Thanks. :)
Almost all of the Netgate hardware models have their own (re)install instructions at https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/solutions/ which is what their support will send with the image.

@steveits I get what you were saying - but just wanted to make it crystal clear ;) heheh

And now they have come up with the official solution for 1100 and 2100… politely I didn’t write this before, but I’m not surprised I guessed it… the gave the finger and woke reinstall from scratch is the only solution.
Looks like these are the advantages of official supported hardware! -

Looks like these are the advantages of official supported hardware!Pardon me but there is no fix for your system that has too-small a partition except re-imaging.
The engineers are still working on getting the script tested and verified so that if your system has too small a EFI partition the upgrade attempt stops so that it does not keep it from being bootable.

@rcoleman-netgate Q: will 1100/2100 that are not on 22.05, and can't upgrade to 23.01, be able to upgrade to 22.05? We have a few non-managed clients that had not yet upgraded to 22.05, and can only get to 23.01 via reinstall, which means an on-site visit.
-
@steveits They should but you want to make sure you set the right upgrade branch.

I am having issues upgrading my "System Netgate 1100" which below is the information of the system. Are there issues with the 1100 Netgate devices at this time?
Here is the error messages:

@_chadtech Yes. Apparently the post unpins itself (??) but https://forum.netgate.com/topic/178049/pfsense-plus-23-01-updates-on-the-1100-and-2100-systems/.
Short version: they're working on a way for unaffected devices to upgrade, or you can manually reinstall if you don't want to wait.

@steveits Thank you!

We can set that for a period of time, not permanently, it appears. Or at least I can only do it for a period of time.

Yeah! Was able to upgrade my 2100 today to 23.01.

@twgraham35 We are going to be updating the sticky post and Reddit posts today.
