It does work. However, / is the root of bsd.rd, not the root of the system you want to upgrade (this would have to be guessed and the upgrade script doesn't do guessing without asking for confirmation). It's a bit of a pain to get the file there, and I don't think there's any official documentation. semarie@ wrote some instructions a while back: https://marc.info/?l=openbsd-misc&m=141552533922277&w=2 see also: https://marc.info/?l=openbsd-misc&m=146890249418788&w=2 where he indicates that there are more posts to be found on misc (but I don't know where).
