NanoBSD version 8.1.2011 update does not Reboot and finalize the update

[jimp]

Even if using the auto reboot doesn't happen, and the console menu option doesn't work (which is being investigated), you can always drop to a shell and just type "shutdown -r now" or "reboot". Though the shutdown method is preferred between those two, neither is as good as using /etc/rc.reboot or Diagnostics > Reboot from the GUI, when they work.

Yep, did not try those commands ""shutdown -r now"" or "reboot" - I just made a hardboot and that's it. This is my primary FW at home, but I still want to use these 2.0 beta builds. I really want to follow up how things evolve. This is stable enough to me. You should NOT use this in production or environments that are difficult to reach if these kind of "bugs" hits you. If it works - do not "repair" !

pfSense is great! Good work all of you  8)

I think I know what caused the reboot failure, hopefully will have something checked in today to fix it up.

[jimp]

I think I tracked it down, I just committed a fix and restarted the builders.

N.B.: The next update may still not reboot, but the one after it will, since at the time you do the update you are still running the 'old' code, and won't be on the 'new' code until after the next reboot.

If it doesn't reboot, just go to a shell and run

shutdown -r now
