      Tried upgrading my sg3100. It went into a boot loop.

      When I plu a console in I get the following:

      FreeBSD/armv6 U-Boot loader, Revision 1.2
      (Tue Jul 10 10:26:23 EDT 2018 root@buildbot3)

      DRAM: 2048MB
      Number of U-Boot devices: 4
      U-Boot env: loaderdev not set, will probe all devices.
      Found U-Boot device: disk
      Probing all disk devices...
      Checking unit=0 slice=<auto> partition=<auto>...disk0: read failed, error=1

      Checking unit=1 slice=<auto> partition=<auto>... good.
      Booting from disk1s2a:
      Loading /boot/defaults/loader.conf
      console comconsole is invalid!
      no valid consoles!
      Available consoles:
      uboot
      don't know how to load module '/boot/kernel/kernel'
      don't know how to load module '/boot/kernel/kernel'

      can't load 'kernel'

        That doesn't sound great for the disk. You could try running fsck or perhaps open a free ticket with Netgate (go.netgate.com) to get a copy of the firmware to reinstall.

        Pre-2.7.2/23.09: Only install packages for your version, or risk breaking it. Select your branch in System/Update/Update Settings.
        When upgrading, allow 10-15 minutes to restart, or more depending on packages and device speed.

          I can find the sbin directory and the fsck command by using 'ls', but I can't seem to execute the command. I also can't use 'cd'.

          I tried /sbin/fsck but it didn't work.
