I upgraded amd64-current from ftp.hostserver.de. The problem is a little bit more tricky as the system is fully encrypted (key-based). The usb-key itself seems to be untampered as the system is unlocked and the system wants to start. Yet: --- quote --- boot> booting sr0a:/bsd: sr0a:/bsd: Inappropriate file type of format failed(79). will try /bsd Turning timeout off boot> --- end of quote --- At that point the startup process stops. But I am able to enter "bsd.rd" and the rd-kernel starts. As I am not at home it is not possible to get an internet connection thus trying to rerun the upgrade is not possible. But with the ramdisk system I am able to mount / and /home and thus able to copy the previous bsd.mp to /bsd. Still no luck, just that it now says "... format failed(0)." Interestingly at the boot prompt I can issue a "ls". Beside the usual suspects I see after the line for "bsd.rd" the following: --- quote --- stat(sr0a:/./sys): No such file or directory --- end of quote --- I was able to save a dmesg from the bsd.rd which is attached as txt-file. I guess once I am back at home having a LAN connection I will be able to rerun the upgrade process. Does someone have any idea what I might do until then? (And Yes - I have a full backup ;-) ) Best, STEFAN Just as a follow-up: I managed to boot with an older kernel still residing on the disk. For what reason ever the bsd.mp-file was not downloaded entirely - just about 2MB. Now I am back on the track. Sorry for the noise. Best, STEFAN
