      It very strange that 2.1 does not upgrade all packages. I had pkg_delete and pkg_add to get latest versions of packages.
      Everytime I install lates snapshot using auto update It kills my postfix. I have to reinstall postfix and mailscanner to get it to work .

        tritron,

        Some packages,like postfix and mailscanner, do not have the .pbi files needed by pfsense 2.1 yet.

        att,

            Are they stable enough now for home use, without crashing or any major problems?

              Basically, yes, but if you depend on specific packages or features there may be the one or other thing not working as expected.

                Since we moved the builds to a blazingly fast new box, I went ahead and enabled nanobsd+vga builds for each snapshot run. enjoy!

                  Is your blazingly fast new build boxes dumping update files to a new location also? Reason I am asking is that I have an IPv6 only firewall that cannot get to update. Some troubleshooting shows that snapshots.pfsense.org is not resolving a AAAA record.

                    Yeah the snapshots site moved to our colo at NYI (the builds are done in yet a different place), the NYI site doens't have IPv6 yet, but will soon.

                        It's on the wiki, but either physdiskwrite or win32 disk imager.

                            AAAA is back for snapshots.pfsense.org so getting updates over IPv6 will work again.

                                      Hello

                                      I am on a clean 2.0.1 (i386) and try to update to 2.1. Enabling development repo, and allowing unsigned images.

                                      When done it says:
                                      The image file is corrupt.
                                      Update cannot continue

                                      Should it be possible to upgrade using the GUI? Or is something else needed for first time upgrade to 2.1?

                                      BR. Anders

                                        That should be enough.

                                        It's possible your system is downloading a bad or corrupt image somehow (perhaps a proxy or something else in between?)

                                        If it's still giving the same message after a new snapshot run (check back tomorrow), start a fresh thread for the issue.

                                            are there 64-bit builds?ย  I'm looking for a nanobsd to run from USB but all I see are i386.ย  Possibly I'm missing something.
