Upgrading to 2.3 on nanobsd 4g errors out
-
I'm running pfsense 2.2.6 on a 4g CF card. When I try to update through the GUI it begins to download the files, but as soon as it tries to install it sends me an email notifying me that, "Something went wrong when trying to update the fstab entry. Aborting upgrade."
Here is the only log I managed to find pertaining to the upgrade, even after reviewing the log, I'm not sure how to go about the upgrade, any advise would be appreciated!

We had on all 4g nanobsd 2.2.6 -> 2.3 successfully updated, but with "device busy" on remount /dev/ufs/cf when changing config files.
Changing firewall rules or other options were not possible
So we rolled back. -
I have the same issue, I cannot upgrade to 2.3 from 2.2.6 nanobsd 4g 64bit.
Same error message as well.
"Something went wrong when trying to update the fstab entry"
EDIT:I used the built in upgrade and that worked fine.
