    Attempted upgrade via UI.
    Upgrade ran. Appeared successful.
    Device rebooted
    When device became available is running 23.05.1
    SSH access is now broken.
    ssh -l root 192.168.1.1
    (root@192.168.1.1) Password for root@<hostname>:
    -sh: /etc/rc.initial: not found
    Connection to 192.168.1.1 closed.

    Update page thinks we are running 23.09Screen Shot 2023-11-16 at 1.17.30 PM.png

    Home page thinks we are running 23.05.1

    What should my next step be to upgrade to 23.09?
    Do I need to take any extra steps to fix the current configuration?

      You can probably complete the upgrade by running at the command line: pkg-static upgrade

        Console access was required. cmd line upgrade via pkg upgrade allowed the device to upgrade. Was not able to detect why the prior UI upgrade did not succeed.
        Thank you.
        Regards,
