With upgrade source method, it is always needed to do the "make installworld" step in single user mode. But it seems to be that single user is not required with freebsd-update method, in the second "freebsd-update install". Someone could explain the reason? Am I misunderstanding something? Can I run the upgrade enterely by mean a ssh connection in a safe way, or will I need a serial console? Best regards, and excuse my poor english. --opJtzjQTFsWo+cga Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.19 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAlDhgX4ACgkQFOo0zaS9RnJMpACgkgJbI3Rc8X2f4XE9pJ315Kw/ xSEAn29Uwtnjh4UErlLdGW7ratrxSlmY =kZBI -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --opJtzjQTFsWo+cga--
