17.7 Legacy Series / [SOLVED] Update from .7.12 -> .7.12-1 failed - file system read only
« on: January 30, 2018, 02:34:27 pm »
today I started the upgrade from 17.7.1 to 17.7.12-1 on my apu2c4. During the upgrade process the appliance froze , so I did a reboot from the console after 30 minutes.
Since then the GUI does not start, on the console I see this problem when I try to upgrade again manually:
/usr/local/etc/rc.firmware.subr: cannot create /tmp/pkg_upgrade.progress: Read-only file system
A firmware update is currently in progress.
Just a note what also happened last night. I ran a firmware upgrade on the apu2c4, this competed successfully, after that I was able to work for about an hour before going to sleep. Some time between 3 and 6 am the opnsense hung itself up. It was not reachable through network although from an outside ipsec-vpn I slowly was able to access the network switch inside my network. After a hard power-off reboot everything was working fine until the opnsense upgrade as described above.
What I tried to do now:
using the shell execute twice
mount -uo rw /
touch /root/force_fsck
Yet this did not help, file system check seems not to work and when booting back the file system still is read only. With my limitied unix knowledge I'm stuck now. Does anyone have an idea how to get the file system back into rw mode, run a file system check and bring the opnsense back to life?
Thanks,
Artur
