But, this should be good enough, from the last kernel log from before I upgraded: +FreeBSD 9.3-RELEASE-p49 #0: Fri Oct 21 21:01:08 UTC 2016 + root@amd64-builder.daemonology.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC amd64 I was at the latest patchlevel (p53 - p49 was the last kernel patchlevel, it appears) before attempting the upgrade. -Eric On Mon, Jan 9, 2017 at 7:15 PM, Benjamin Kaduk <kaduk@mit.edu> wrote: > On Mon, Jan 09, 2017 at 08:13:06AM -0500, Eric Rucker wrote: >> Hello, >> >> I've noticed that I was unable to perform an upgrade directly to >> FreeBSD 11.0-RELEASE from 9.3-RELEASE by following the directions in >> this document: https://www.freebsd.org/releases/11.0R/installation.html >> >> Upon attempting to run freebsd-update upgrade -R 11.0-RELEASE, I >> received the error "The update metadata is correctly signed, but >> failed an integrity check."
