      Hi

      I was running 23.01 and decided to go with 23.05. The update process went fine and was successfull but when rebooting system creashed ang got stuck at boot

      here are the console logs :

      BIOS drive C: is disk0

      Can't find /boot/zfsloader

      Can't find /boot/loader
      |
      Can't find /boot/kernel/kernel

      FreeBSD/x86 boot
      Default: zfs:pfSense/ROOT/default:/boot/kernel/kernel
      boot:

      Is there a way to boot it again or anything to recover ?

      thanks for your help

          Hi
          @Gertjan I checked but unfortunately nothing works I tried the commands "boot /boot/kernel " , "boot /boot/kernel/kernel", "/boot/kernel "
          I can't read any file to check what could be the right boot command I m stuck at this boot prompt
