      same error here can post a pic if needed, had to re image… tried to rescue the config with a live cd and that would fail... used a slightly older back up ... was able to re-image and bring back up. tried upgrading again same issue. so using an older build right now

          Same here! Updated this morning and found out that it won't boot anymore.

          What can I do to rescue this install?

              Just to report that nanoBSD is OK. I upgraded from:

              2.2-BETA (i386)
              built on Fri Nov 14 18:48:42 CST 2014
              FreeBSD 10.1-RELEASE
              

              to

              2.2-BETA (i386)
              built on Sat Nov 15 03:49:56 CST 2014
              FreeBSD 10.1-RELEASE
              

              without problem.

                Same here. Things have gone so well with this Alpha/Beta that I didn't check the forums before upgrading.

                This version should be revoked.

                      I deleted all snapshot auto-updates. It's definitely a problem on both 32 and 64 bit full version. I probably should have left the nano images there, but they'll get re-populated.

                      There is another build running right now that will probably have the same problem but I'm letting it run. I'll check that at some point after it comes out.

                      Until someone says otherwise, don't upgrade anything other than test systems.

                        Reinstall and restore backup. Rescue config in installer should work too, though I haven't tried that in a bit.

                          Smart advice that applies to lots of problems…  haha
                          I usually get scolded for saying that.

                            There is a new snapshot up that doesn't seem to have that problem. I've upgraded upwards of a half dozen different full installs, mix of 32 and 64 bit, to the most recent snapshot at the time of this writing and they all went fine. I'm not sure what the issue was, and probably won't know until we can discuss on Monday. Take care when upgrading in the mean time.

                                Snapshots aren't signed, that's normal.

                                    worked when upgraded this time, there was an error synching user profiles on first boot next boot no such error, took a third boot to check still was fine, checked config and users all seem to be fine, will be checking IPsec when remote in just over an hour. do not expect and issues

                                    tested IPsec works… seems everything is good now

                                      I've upgraded about 10 systems to the 3 snapshots out since the run I deleted and haven't had any issues since, seems this is fine now.
