      But being fair here would also not sop hard as it sounds.
      We are able to set up and/or install both systems fresh!

      You will be able to install 2.6 (zfs) > 23.01 (zfs) > 23.05 (zfs)
      In half an hour all is done, no packages, no backup until
      23.05 is reached (installed) and over the console

      And on the other side 2.7 (zfs) fresh install is also present
      For peoples with newer hardware in usage such as Intel i226

      So getting the hands on something that will be only
      producing more or less some "quirks" in is also not that nice.

      There are noted improvements in the way that ZFS fresh installs take place on 2.7/23.01/23.05 that have a different end result compared to an upgrade from 2.6. Admittedly, I don't know the details but I remember discussion about it.

        Might be, but you will be able to install 23.05 or 2.7 dev
        if needed urgent. Thats the main point. And if at this time
        it will be a good option or not producing much more
        problems I am pretty sure Netgate would be offering that
        shorter way before or instand.

          As far as I can tell, the mentioned ability to upgrade from earlier 2.7 snapshots to 23.05 is not correct. 2023-05-20 and 2023-05-10 both still showed 23.01 as the latest.

          I ended up fresh installing 2.7 2023-02-15 then upgrading to 23.01 then 23.05. The 2023-02-15 > 23.01 was only a small fast update so it worked well.

            Just want to comment that after updating my 2.7.0 snapshot to the latest 2.7.0 snapshot 0605-0600 I believe it was, that the option to go straight from 2.7.0 to 23.05 was now available. It was no longer limited to just 23.01.

              It's now possible to upgrade from both 2.6 and 2.7-snapshots directly to 23.05

                  @JimBob-Indiana I did it yesterday.

                  I don't remember which exact build of 2.7 Dev I was on, I think it was from May 30th. It was completely painless.

                    Any 2.7 version should work to 23.05. Including beta. 😉

                    It was only a problem before 23.05 was released because 23.01 had an earlier php version.

                      @stephenw10 Update to 23.05 worked great. Now I have to resist installed 23.09…. :)

                        Since today I was able to upgrade two times the 2.7
                        Devel version and now it is named 2.7 BETA and you
                        may be able to choose to upgrade directly from it
                        to 23.05.
