23.7 online updates

[tdalej]

I got 23.7 up and running and ran through an update cycle.
Then I started configuring interfaces.

After that I went back and sure enough there are more updates available.

This time it's exponentially slower than the first time.
Seems to be hung here -- is this bad or am I just being impatient?
The "no route to host" bothers me and no reboot so far..

It does seem to be doing an update: - but is this an issue?

That was a long, strange trip.

Eventually, after many reboots and update retries ....
