Upgrade to 2.0

[sepp]

Hi,

I'm currently running pfsense 1.2.3 (release) and want to upgrade to version 2.0 RC3. Is it possible to do this with the builtin upgrade mechanism (I suppose I'll have to do this by the manual firmware upload, but I'm not sure)?
Will I be able to upgrade to version 2.0 (release) later?

Hi,

yes it is possible to upgrade from 1.2.3 to 2.0 actual snapshot or to later 2.0 releases.
Before you start updating your pfsense backup your config file.
Then you habe to to an manual firmware update from the web GUI.

Thanks. Version 2.0 RC3 up and running :-)

Good solution! :-)

There are new snapshots every day. Here you can find the changelog of the snapshots.

It is not neccessary to update every day but it makes sense to do so once a week or every two weeks.
If you think you found a bug, first check for an update and then report to the forum if the bug is still persistent.
