Latest pfsense+ 23.01 beta freezes on Hyper-v

jimp

This should be fixed with the loader changes on Plus 23.05 snapshots, if someone can try upgrading an affected Gen2 VM to 23.05 that would help testing:

I still can't reproduce the original boot problem here (on 23.01 or otherwise)

I tried earlier today at 10:00am EST and it still froze... I got tired of it and deleted the vm. Any hint on what snapshot date I should wait for? May 3rd I presume?

The loader changes have been in for a while now, any recent snapshot should be OK if that was the problem.

@jimp Thanks Jim. I read through this whole thread for every hint or comment, and have given up.

IMHO, there is now way to go from 2.6 to 23.01 on Windows Server 2002 which is VM v10.

Perhaps? your Win11 v11 is the difference.

@rpotter28 Na, I am on Server 2022 with no problem. I think it is only a very few with problems.
Btw there was no announcement about the beta in the forum this time? But I guess it is a bug fix release anyways.

@bob-dig Thanks for that, I am not usually in the very few having problems. Would love to solve it! I am testing on a fully patched/updated 2022 cluster with no other issues.

i have 2.7 running just fine, and received another 3 keys this morning so I will try to go to 23.01 from there. How did you get to 23.01?

Hmm, 2.7 does not hit this for you but 23.05 does?
