No console menu

[martin.schaible]

Hello

I wanted to update my box from Vversion 20.7.7_1 to 21.1. I have rebooted the device and the serial console shows all outputs nicely. At the end, i expected to see the console menu, but the console stops at:

Sat Jun  5 15:02:11 CEST 2021

*** utm.netfusion.local: OPNsense 20.7.8_4 (amd64/OpenSSL) ***

 LAN (igb0)      -> v4: **myIP**
 WAN (igb2)      -> v4/DHCP4: **MyIP**

 SSH:   SHA256 6j2pLt4465dmIwNY8eF8scwRLkKFrQxDyA/Pnaldeeo (RSA)

What is going wrong and what can id do to get it working?

Thanks!

After a minor update to version 20.7.8. i realized, that the update to 21.1.x can be done from the Web UI, which i did. Worked out perfect.

Still console menu doesn't show up.

Hi Martin,

On my APU the console menu is only displayed after logon (as root).

Kind Regards,

So what sort of hardware or VM host is this... console works but login can't find it to display a prompt.


Cheers,
