All,

I just updated my firewall .. at the end of the upgade I got the following message:

Fetching kernel-16.1.14-amd64.txz: ........ done
Fetching base-16.1.14-amd64.txz: .......... done
Fetching base-16.1.14-amd64.obsolete: ... failed

Before starting the update .. it notified that is was going to reboot ...; that did not happen

please advise

regards

Wim

Hi Wim,

Try to run again from the console, option 12.

So there the download and verification of 20 MB kernel + 40 MB base system went ok, but downloading a flat file for obsoleted files (a few KB) failed for some reason.

The console can tell you better what went wrong. And I do believe that starting with 16.1.15 the firmware upgrade window will tell you as well. That was an improvement that was made just then.


Cheers,
Franco

PS: Neither the kernel nor there base were upgraded here, so you ran into a safety net there, your install is fully, functional just not patched for the last bits.

It may also be your selected firmware mirror. Try (default) in case this keeps happening.

Franco,
I upgraded via SSH option 12 .. without problems

thanks for the help & guidenance

Wim
