Upgrade for nanobsd from 1G to 2G or 4G
-
I understand that the 1G images are not supported anymore.
So I can't make an in place upgrade from 2.2.6 to 2.3 RC.
What is the best way to upgrade and keep configuration?
Can I fully image with a 2G image and then restore the old 2.2.6 config backup?thanks, Till

Yes, make a new 2G or bigger CF card from a 2.2.6 or 2.3 full image.
After restoring the 2.2.6 config, as it reboots it will automagically update any necessary stuff in the old config to bring it up to the installed version. -
That has worked flawlessly. I am really impressed.
Just imaged 2.3 on a spare CF card and imported the old config.
Will move on to the next box now.
thanks!
