https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=197160 Bug ID: 197160 Summary: freebsd-update upgrade 10.0 -> 10.1 segmentation faults Product: Base System Version: 10.0-RELEASE Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Some People Priority: --- Component: bin Assignee: freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: freebsd@ips.gov.au freebsd-update upgrade 10.0-RELEASE-p?? -> 10.1-RELEASE-p4 Have found running freebsd-update install after the first required reboot has ~50% failure rate with segmentation faults from install, then then with most commands eg. ls -lrt ..... The issue lies with updating the /libexec/ld-elf* files. Workaround(s): Hopefully before reboot cp /libexec/ld-elf* from a patched up 10.1 system into /tmp on the system being upgraded. Follow the normal freebsd-update upgrade procedure If segmentation faults start spitting out suspend freebsd-update install (ctrl+z) Then kill any freebsd-update processes run "/rescue/cp -f /tmp/ld-elf* /libexec/" restart freebsd-update install Continue with the normal freebsd-update upgrade procedure Warning: DONOT reboot the PC until you have updated the /libexec/ld-elf* files. As you will not be able to get back into the system. A workaround used in this instance: mount HD on another system & copy the files If files not already copied: put on a flash drive and use /rescue/mount_msdosfs /dev/??? /mnt to access after killing freebsd-update above -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
