SG-1100 - Failed pfsense upgrade
-
I need help! I tried updating my SG-1100 to the latest OS (25.??) but for some reason it failed.
When I boot it, the console is just reporting that /etc/rc-install could not be found (currently cannot get that to repeat though).
So I downloaded the boot image and burnt that to a USB stick, trying to go through the installation. However, it fails reporting that it is not able to create the partitions.
I have now got into a total mess and am at a loss to how I fix my SG-1100!
Please help - the above has had to be done from memory as i've managed to get in a real muddle.

Looking at the disk:
