SG-1100 update from 23.09.1 to 24.03 keeps failing
-
Hmm, that's very odd. Is it switching to an old BE after the reboot?
Ultimately you could just install 24.03 clean and restore the config. That shouldn't be required though.

@stephenw10
I deleted the big BE files and they are not coming back, so I don't think the system can be booting from those old BE files.
There are some 24k files that won't stay deleted. They come back upon a reboot.
It's like there's some kind of write protection in place right now??
After deleting the fig BE files, I think there's plenty of flash memory, available.

After reading current posts about other failed 24.03 updates (also with Unlocking package pkg...failed), it sure seems that the update process is currently broken for the SG-1100! I wonder if version 23.09.1 has some flaw which prevents updating?If the Netgate support will send me the giant 24.03 update package file to write to a USB flash drive, I'll take it!

I tried these recommended commands:

-
the size in the GUI is wildly wrong and always a few K...deleting will gain a gig, give or take.
-
is your disk read only/EOL? I seem to recall reading ZFS will "write" but can't actually save it to disk so writes disappear on a boot. Try creating or editing a file without upgrading, and restart.

The text on the page

I finally got my SG-1100 to update. I had to serial console in and clear some disk space as it was failing with only three packages remaining due to the disk being full. I reset the log files, pkg cache and removed '/boot/kernel.old'.
However now that I'm on 24.03, on the status page I am now seeing an extremely full disk. says its 78% full, 1.1G used out of 1.3G. Whereas before the update it was .9G used out of 2G.

And there are no BE snapshots you can remove?
That
0x0bvalue for MLC estimation isn't great.

@stephenw10
Yeah I didn't like reading that value either. I will check on the BE snapshots.EDIT:
After checking the Boot Environments I remember looking at the five entries other than 24.03 and thinking "32K, that's too small to worry about". But removing just one of them gained me about 700M of space, so yeah that was my disk full issue
-
Yes that value is misleading. We hope to replace that with the actual drive space the BE uses.

I bought 2 SG-1100s in fall 2019.I'm going to try a reload of ver. 24.03 with the Network Installer USB stick tonight.
Netgate Support told me I can use a GPT partition with ZFS in an SG-1100.If my emmc memory is failing, is there a replacement/repair option?
Perhaps a discount on a purchase of a new SG-1100?
Do the newer models of SG-1100 have an emmc memory problem? -
The eMMC write life has not changed significantly as far as I know.
Minimum drive writes can be achieved by using UFS, disabling SWAP and enabling RAM disks.

I've just used the SG-1100 as-is out of the box - no exotic configurations with the command line, etc.
It was MBR file system when it arrived in 2019.
ZFS file system was only possible with with 23.09 upgrade, as I recall.If my emmc memory is failing, is there a replacement/repair option?

OK. I tried to use the Online Network Installer USB drive image.
FAIL
It booted and asked if I wanted to install...yes.
It asked where to find the config.xml file.../config/config.xml on the USB drive.
It asked which interface to use to connect to Netgate Servers...WAN.
It asked which file system...ZFS.
It asked which partition system...GPT.
It asked to choose the ZFS Configuration...stripe (is the default, for a single disk).
It asked to select a disk to include in the ZFS configuration...mmcsd0 7.3G MMCHC
It started to partition....then "Installation aborted" (click OK)
"Failed to commit the file system changes...RESTART / EXIT"I told it to RESTART and I tried again with ZFS and MBR...."Installation aborted" again.

If you choose to drop to the shell at that point you can review the install logs in /var/log and /tmp. That should tell you why it aborted.
There's no way to replace the eMMC on the 1100, it's on-board.

Which specific files will show the evidence? /var/log/system.log? /var/log/messages?
IF the emmc is failing on early SG-1100 units, does Netgate offer a discount on a purchase of a new SG-1100?
