Ran freebsd-update install. ( to 14.3 Release) Rebooted after kernel update
( by the same command). While freebsd-update install was running, checked
du -sh in another terminal, mistyped the passwd and then ^C and found on
the first console " Installing updates .... doas : in prompt_tty(): caught
signal 2.1. Does this mean that ^C also interrupted the update installation
in progress in console 1?

du -sh /var/db/freebsd-update remains unchangedcat 2.3 GB for over 45
minutes. on the other terminal
du -sh install 21K also unchanged.

*If so, what do I do now?*

Thank you.

(Found this problem discussed in the thread "Unfamiliar console message: in
prompt_tty..." Copying to Bob Prohaska who raised and answered that thread.
