2.1-release [Update - Success]
-
Successful upgrade on an Atom D525 (Jetway NF99).
Minor issues:
- Diagnostics -> System Activity page is stuck at "Gathering CPU activity, please wait…"
- System -> Firmware page, the Update Settings tab hangs.
That's it for now, will have more to report as it happens.
For me just the CPU activity part and the traffic graph not showing the IP info for now…

Have the same board as you D525 and everything is working just great at least for me…

Just updated a pair of live production CARP boxes. Smooth upgrade so far. Many thanks to all who contributed to pfsense.

ALIX2D13 - upgraded from 2.0 to 2.1 and have now lost all installed packages in the list. Clicking on items such as Avahi in the Services tabe result in an error.
I saw nothing in the upgrade guide / release notes that said I would lose all packages.
-
Try reinstalling the packages. (But yeah - That shouldn't happen usually)
I've seen lots of ALIX issues in the threads with update issues. Apparently small memory and small drives was a bad combo…
Since I'm sure you saved setting before the upgrade, maybe re-image and restore settings? -
I have tried first with Avahi - package has now been 'extracting' for over 10mins.
-
Did you reimage your drive/card?

We already have a couple of threads on Avahi. Remove the thing. It will take a whole lot more than 10 mins on CF with those endless dependencies, plus just digging holes into your firewall.

No - I used the menu option on the main pfSense page to do an upgrade :|

This is the only way I can get Guest network access to Apple services such as AppleTV and music streaming.

I think a wipe/install is in order personally.
Also, doktornotor identified mush earlier that avahi, particularly, was causing people issue earlier.

I have extensive OpenVPN config as well as VLAN tagging / interfaces. I would rather not reconfigure the whole thing.

Well, then you need to get adequate HW, not Alix on CF. My pretty much firm opinion is that the thing has no place on firewalls. plus definitely should not be available on nanobsd at all. Won't even fit the disk space on some images.

Hmm.. helpful for me here tonight….
-
Yeah, it sure is. Providing streaming and AppleTV to guest hardly sounds like a critical service.

"Hmm.. helpful for me here tonight…."
If a clean wipe and reinstall and then package restore works, you can give avahi a try LAST after all else is working.
If it breaks things, you will know what to leave out. -
Adding the "avahi" threads for cross-reference.

Is there any clean way of removing packages that havent finished installing / or removing the packages that no longer show up in my installed package list ?
