[Solved] Upgrade to 26.7 hangs after reloading of os-cpu-microcode-amd-1.1

[untel]

Hello,

The host is a PCengin APU (the one with the 2 SFP).

I have tried both from GUI and CLI, the upgrade to 26.7 hangs forever after first reboot.

After waiting a bit I have both interrupted the upgrade [CTR-C]
and simply powered off.

The system is now displaying :

Versions
OPNsense 26.1.11_10-amd64
FreeBSD 15.1-RELEASE-p1
OpenSSL 3.0.21

It look like it is running correctly but half upgraded.


From there the repo problem is fixed with pkg bootsrap -f
But if I rerun the opgrade it fails at the same package.

- Remove the os-cpu-microcode-amd plugin.
- Perform the OPNsense upgrade.

Then either:

- Wait for 26.7.1 before reinstalling os-cpu-microcode-amd.
- Follow the steps I outlined here: https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=52441.0
- Upgrade your FreeBSD boot loader after upgrading to OPNsense 26.7.

HTH,
Patrick

Thanks for the quick reply, it did the trick.

Versions
OPNsense 26.7-amd64
FreeBSD 15.1-RELEASE-p1
OpenSSL 3.5.7
Will have a look at the boot loader, but chances are that I will wait for 26.7.1

Best regards and thank you very much.
