Hello, i would like to upgrade from RC2.

My pfsense is installed in full mode on my hard drive (not embeded case !)

Upgrade should work but backup your config.xml at diagnostics>backup/restore just for the case it breaks. Also downloading the 1.0.1 LiveCD before attempting the upgrade is recommended.

ok i'll download the cd ;-)

Nobody has done this manipulation ?

Best regards

It should work and I have heard from several people that it works flawlessly. It's just to be up in minutes again in case something breaks.

Well, i have done the upgrade from the GUI and all seem ok :! fine business to all developers

Thanks

If things like this happen on an upgraded system I strongly recommend a reinstall. Backup your config.xml and restore it after reinstalling.

pfctl: DIOCSETSTATUSIF indicates a interface is present in the XML configuration but for some reason PF is not seeing the interface.  You may want to reset to factory defaults.
