Thanks, missed those. But the same problem occurs:

This box has no source code, so I'm trying to use freebsd-update to
upgrade to 10.0-beta2-pwhatever, then to beta4.

The fetch command shows that freebsd-update needs patching.

When I run the install, I get:

;freebsd-update install
Installing updates...

And it hangs.

load: 0.17  cmd: install 2796 [nanslp] 156.82r 0.01u 0.02s 0% 6220k

Any thoughts?

This is a new system, so I could reinstall it if need be, but it
seemed that troubleshooting might be valuable. If I should just
reinstall with beta4, please say so.

Thanks,
