      Nope sorry our replies got out of order, my last was for the drive/drive controller issue.

      You are stuck on the EFI frame buffer so some UEFI issue. I assume that's not a VM?

        @stephenw10 : No, it's a real machine. Is there anything I could do?

          What hardware is it? It must have some UEFI quirk we have not seen locally.

            @stephenw10 Anyway to get the boot logs for 24.03 without a console cable? I ordered an mSATA drive for the box so I'll have to wait on that or the console cable, whichever gets here first. Curiously, are you seeing any reports similar to this issue?

              No not that drive/drive controller error like that.

              If you interrupt the boot at the console and prevent it rebooting you should be able to scroll back through the screen buffer to see what is shown. Or if you are able to boot into single user mode you can run dmesg to see that.

                I'm seeing the same, using a v.8.1.4 Proxmox VM:

                  @stephenw10 : Update: The EFI issue is gone - I don't know why. After being back in 23.09.1 I simply changed the update settings back to the previous version (23.09.1). A refresh on the dashboard shows the new release. I clicked it and changed the update settings to 24.03. and it did not stuck in the bootloader. Really, that' all I have done.

                  But it was interesting, that 24.03. starts (unfortunately not complete). In my setup, pfSense is located behind a cable modem that is in bridge mode. Sometimes, it happens that pfSense does not immediately get an WAN address and it's not clear to me whether it had a WAN connection. However, it tried to download all the Emerging Threats and Snort rules and ran into a timeout for all of them. I did not exactly check the time, but the unsuccessful download process at least took 10 minutes. Then, it went fast: It automatically performed a reboot - and I was back at 23.09.1... 😢

                    That's a known issue: https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/15396
                    Though I wouldn't expect it to take that long to timeout. Unless maybe you have a very large number of lists.

                    Try uninstalling pfBlocker and Snort/Suricata and then upgrading.

                        The VM CPU was x86-64-v2-AES.

                        I restored a VM backup to v.23.09.1, changed CPU to "kvm64" and applied the v.24.03 upgrade with same boot error.

                        Restored VM backup to v.23.09.1, changed CPU to "host" and applied the v.24.03 upgrade. Same boot error. Rebooted a second time and v.23.09.1 successfully loaded. Went into "Boot Environments" and enabled v.24.03 boot environment and rebooted successfully, completing the v24.03 upgrade (using CPU as "host" type).

                        Not sure what happened, but have finished the upgrade and I'll continue using CPU set as "host" type for now.

                        Thank you for your input.

                          Hmm, odd. That's the opposite of what some other users have reported!
                          Glad you got upgraded though.

                            @stephenw10 : I did neither uninstall pfBlocker nor Suricata. Instead, I have only unchecked the installation of rules in Suricata's Global Settings and disabled Suricata for the given interface. Then the upgrade to 24.03_1 went smoothly. It took a couple of minutes and everything is fine now.
                            Thanks @stephenw10 !

                              @stephenw10 Finally got my replacement mSATA drive and ran through the installing 2.7.2->23.09.1->24.03 and I'm up and running on the latest. Can you do me favor and look at my boot log for anything unusual?
