Hi, I have a Sunfire V120 (Sparc) with mirrored disks running OpenBSD 6.0. I attempted to update to OpenBSD 6.1 using the files first from:
http://mirrors.sonic.net/pub/OpenBSD/6.1/sparc64 Then from: https://ftp3.usa.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/6.1/sparc64 First I tried to copy bsd.rd to / and boot from it. When I boot using 6.1 bsd.rd (boot /bsd.rd), the boot messages still show OpenBSD 6.0. I selected update, selected my mirrored boot/root device but it would only give options to update bsd, bsd.rd & bsd.mp. I selected http and it defaulted to a URL that had /6.0/ in the path. I changed it to 6.1 but it wouldn't list any of the *61.tgz files. After rebooting normally (using the new /bsd), it would still show that I'm running 6.0 (and BOOT 1.7). Then I tried burning the install61.iso to a CD and booting from it. The boot messages would show OpenBSD 6.1 (and BOOT 1.9) and it gave me the option of updating with the *61.tgz files. Everything seemed to install just fine. However, upon rebooting with /bsd, the boot messages showed I was still running 6.0 (and BOOT 1.7). To make matters worse, my IP filters wouldn't load yielding the error: pfctl: DIOCADDRULE: Operation not supported by device Also, pkg_add -u gave the following error: Couldn't find updates for bash-4.3.46 gettext-0.19.7 libiconv-1.14p3 libidn-1.32p1 libpsl-0.13.0 libunistring-0.9.7 pcre-8.38p0 pkglocatedb-1.2 sudo-1.8.17.1 vim-7.4.1467p1-no_x11 wget-1.18 This, of course, broke internet access from my internal network. I tried upgrading again from the CD and also tried manually upgrading using the manual upgrade steps. All this still resulted in the above error. I finally decided to roll back by following the manual update steps but with the files from the install60.iso media. My firewall rules are working again. Could there be something wrong with the kernel files (bsd, bsd.rd) available for the OpenBSD 6.1 sparc64 release or am I missing a step? Thanks! -Jeff P.S. As an aside, after downgrading to 6.0, I ran add_pkg -u but forgot to change the URL in my /etc/pkg.conf back to 6.0 from 6.1. I let the packages install but should I do a full manual rollback to 6.0 before reattempting another 6.1 upgrade?
