      I've got a pfsense box running 2.3.4-RELEASE-p1. The web GUI says that I'm running the latest version. I ran an update from the console and if upgraded a bunch of packages. The system is still saying it's running 2.3.4-RELEASE-p1. The console updater is now saying that I am up to date.

      I noticed on the website that 2.3.5 is available for download. Are 2.3.4-RELEASE-p1 and 2.3.5 essentially the same? Or do I need to look into doing a manual upgrade via USB?

      Thanks.

        Yeah, you just cut out the most important one : i386 CPU ou AMD64 - or known as "32 bits" or "64 bits".

        2.3.5 is the succesor of 2.3.4-xxxx, so go head, take it, as it is out for several days now, thus : ok.

        If your pfSense proposes you 2.3.5 then you're probably running the 32 bits version, which will be supported a year or so.
        Check out your system to see why you use the 32 bit version, and if 64 bits is accepted, consider a complete re install to jump to "64 bits". Of course, backup your config first and use it when re installing.

        See alos all the doc, blogs, posts, etc for more - if not all - the info.

        No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
        Edit : and where are the logs ??

          I'm running the i386/32bit version on a Soekris net5501 which has a AMD Geode LX CPU. It's a 32bit chip. So I understand that I can't run 2.4.x and that's fine. I'm just wondering why the update tool is saying that 2.3.4-RELEASE-p1 is the latest version.

              Hi,

              I had also some troubles during upgrading i386 NanoBSD from 2.3.4_1 to 2.3.5 . One of them was missing "Legacy stable version (Security/Errata only 2.3.x)" branch.

              Solution: I switched the Firmware Branch to "Development Snapshot (Experimental 2.3.x)", saved the changes and checked for upgrades. After this procedure I could select "Legacy stable version (Security/Errata only 2.3.x)" branch. After saving the configuration, new updates were recognised.

              Regards

              P.S. Yes, I got 2.3.5 and 2.3.5_1 on my i386 NanoBSD.
