      I have 5+ pfSense 2.6.0 CE installs, all running well.
      Now that 2.7.0 has been released, i'd like to wait a bit before installing.
      In order to not FSCK up package(s), i'm setting the Firmware Branch to - Previous stable.

      Expected selections:
      My main prod box - "Previous" 2.6.0 now selected.

      On that box i have these selections in the "selection box"

      Unexpected selections
      My Test box

      No 2.6.0 possible ... But 2.5.2 ????

      What could have happened here ??

      I think that all my boxes were "Clean" 2.6.0 installs, as in not upgraded from 2.5.2.
      As i wanted to match the new 2.6.0 ZFS disk layout.

        I'm seeing the same results as your Test Box on mine this morning. It wasn't that way
        yesterday afternoon when 2.7.0 was released.

        Something changed overnight on the Update site. This concerns me as whether I
        want to risk updating or just stay with 2.6.0. I had planned on doing a clean
        install of 2.7.0 CE and just import my 2.6.0 config but now not sure which way to go.

          Well i succeded in getting the "unexpected boxes" to show the "expected".

          I had to switch to the "Devel" branch , then go to the pfSense main screen , it will now show 2.8.xxxx as the branch (devel)

          Then back to updates and system updates , there i selected 2.6.0
          Then i switched to update settings.
          Now i was shown this
          7db5cc41-b892-4d68-a3bd-730c7c7c2ef0-image.png

          And could select the "Previous 2.6.0".

            @bingo600 I am not seeing the "Devel" branch to upgrade from 2.7 to 2.8 for my VM...even after rebooting twice.
