Upgrade DEC-850 to 22.1.4_1 failed

[N0b0dy1985]

I attempted to remotely upgrade a DEC-850 that I use for a home firewall. The device didn't come back up after a reboot. When I arrived back home, there was predictably no internet service and the FW couldn't be reached over the network. Serial console was unresponsive, and I had to resort to ungracefully power-cycling the box.

The device was still failing to boot. I eventually resorted to trying to reinstall from USB. This is what I see in the console:

Boot hangs at pflog0: permanently promiscuous mode enabled. I have verified the SHA256 hash of the file I downloaded, and tried a different USB memory stick with the same results. Any ideas on what's going on, or what to try next?

There are new images available and it looks like you have to disable "legacy UART support" in the BIOS. Maybe that is the reason for your problems. Please have a look at https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=27432.msg133502#msg133502

Actually, this means the box booted fine but the serial console is not available.

Yep. Thanks Raketenmeyer and Franco. That allowed me to move pass the 'stuck boot' non-issue. 

When I got the FW fully booted, I still couldn't reach the GUI. I statically configured a laptop with an IP address, and was able to get into the GUI and saw that a lot of services failed to start, DHCP server being among them. I took me another reboot to get everything back up and running.

Not sure why so many services failed to start after the upgrade yesterday, but that was why I had no connectivity when I got home last night.

A bit strange indeed. The initial upgrade to 22.1 must have gone well in contrast, otherwise you would not have ended up in 22.1.4_1. The jump to 22.1.4 is considerably smaller so I wonder what happened. The error was likely on the console and that's a bit unfortunate but at least if it happens again it can be traced.

I would suggest to do a health check from the firmware status page to be sure it installed everything correctly or to see if there are file system problems.
