So if I understand this correctly, after the reboot, the system should come up in single user mode, yes? It didn't seem to work, but maybe I confused things with the boot environments. > pkg upgrade FreeBSD-clibs (this takes care on ABI mismatch or new syscalls) Running this from single-user errors out with "pkg: Insufficient privilege to upgrade packages".
