After upgrading to the final version of 2.0.0, BurmillaOS will not completely boot. I am unable to reach the VM via network, but also the console is not functional (no login prompt). If I select to boot 2.0.0-rc2 from GRUB, it boots successfully. Do I have to perform additional steps when upgrading from rc2?

Screenshot of console after booting 2.0.0 final attached.

Yes, these 2.0.0 rc1 and rc2 are special cases which had some changes included which made upgrading from older versions more tricky. Those was reverted like mentioned #161 (comment)

From these versions, please look upgrade guide in https://github.com/burmilla/os/releases/tag/v2.0.0-rc1

[ghysler]

I'm not sure I'm following. I am currently running rc2 and trying to upgrade to the final version. The instructions you shared are for upgrading from 1.9.x to 2.0.0-rcx, right?
Anyway I attempted to use these instructions to upgrade to 2.0.0 final, but the result is the same: stuck during boot.

How can I revert the changes from the upgrade to rc2?

[olljanat]

I mean that there is need to do those extra steps mentioned on that release notes to force console rebuild when upgrading from rc1 or rc2.

You should see previous versions option in boot menu.

[ghysler]

The only options I have in my boot menu are for 2.0.0-rc2 and 2.0.0-final.

Apparently I needed to reboot the system before disabling console rebuild again with the command mentioned on the 2.0.0-rc1 release notes. Somehow I was under the impression the reboot should be performed only after disabling console rebuild.

It would have been nice to see clear update instructions on the current release, for users coming from rc1/rc2. Anyway, I am running 2.0.0 now :) Thanks for your prompt reply.

Yes, upgrade is only completed by reboot.

Not sure that how many actually read those release notes but let's leave this issue open for a while so those coming from those two versions can see it.

One thing that's not mentioned anywhere in the documentation is 2.0.0 changed console to tty1, whereas 2.0.0-rc2 used tty0. This made me wonder why the console never came up when I did an upgrade. Only after doing a clean install did I see the console change.

[olljanat]

@tai-ss on which platform you are running BurmillaOS? There should be console on all TTYs even on this upgrade scenario.

[tai-ss]

I'm running it as a VM under FreeBSD 13.1-RELEASE-p9's *bhyve* type 2 hypervisor.
