Can't Upgrade SG-3100
-
I recently dusted the cobwebs off of my SG-3100 and went to upgrade to 21.02.2 from 2.4.4-RELEASE-p3 (arm) but it keeps erroring out. To be honest I can't remember what I did to break it from upgrading but I know I probably did something. Please hlp. See screenshots attached. It looks like it might be because of FreeBSD"

@mkeenan I had a similar OS message recently. The shortest/safest path may well be to open a free ticket at go.netgate.com and have them send you the firmware, and install it via USB stick. I have gotten past odd warnings before but this time it borked and I had to recover manually.
If you've installed a package from the current repo onto an old version that may try to install dependencies from the later version.
Otherwise see https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/troubleshooting/upgrades.html, maybe set to "previous version" and install that first, and work your way up. 2.4.4 is pretty old. I think I started with 2.4.2 on the one that had to be reinstalled. IIRC it worked to get to 21.02 but then even though it offered 21.05 it "installed" 22.01 and was left half upgraded with the wrong OS.
HTH,
