Hi, I tried to upgrade a server at work from 8.2-RELEASE-i386 to 9.0-RC1-i386 using freebsd-update.When running 'freebsd-update install' to install the n= ew kernel, but that failed because there was insufficient disk space. This res= ulted in freebsd-update thinking everything is ok but left the kernel unbootable. >From the screen capture: > 10G# freebsd-update install > Installing updates... > /: write failed, filesystem is full > install: ///boot/kernel/INS@SmmC: No space left on device > install: ///boot/kernel/INS@lMJN: No space left on device > install: ///boot/kernel/INS@ez1L: No space left on device > install: ///boot/kernel/INS@D78d: No space left on device [... more patch files ..] > install: ///boot/kernel/ng_bt3c.ko.symbols: No space left on device > install: ///boot/kernel/ng_btsocket.ko: No space left on device [.. more destination files ..] These two types of messages are interleaved. It ends with: > install: ///boot/INS@yqYd: No space left on device > rmdir: ///boot/kernel: Directory not empty > > Kernel updates have been installed. Please reboot and run > "/usr/sbin/freebsd-update install" again to finish installing updates. > 10G# df > Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on > /dev/ad0s1a 507630 502860 -35840 108% / So in reality the update never finished properly. More logs on request. Regards, Ren=E9 -- http://www.rene-ladan.nl/ GPG fingerprint =3D E738 5471 D185 7013 0EE0=A0 4FC8 3C1D 6F83 12E1 84F6 (subkeys.pgp.net)
