Unable to update 2100 via console or GUI

I did a pre-update reboot via the console and after it came back I chose option 13 at the console.

Enter an option: 13

Then it just returned to the console.

When I tried in the GUI, I went to System Update and chose Current Stable Version (24.11) but see this:

Retrieving   Another instance of pfSense-upgrade is running. Please try again in a few moments.

I don't see another upgrade running.

Hmmm, now I'm in the GUI and it says I'm on the latest with 24.03. Was 24.11 just pulled? Like how 24.03 was pulled for 2100s?

@terryzb
I ignored the "Another instance of pfSense-upgrade is running." message and with 24.11 selected, ran option 13 again and this time it upgraded.

Other than the CPU ranging between 70-100% and the GUI being very sluggish, it seems to be working.
