The system is an amd64 based system running with zfs on root. I first upgraded to 14.3-RELEASE-p7 as directed, and then did the upgrade to 15.0-RELEASE. I didn't see any errors and everything seemed fine until I rebooted. I don't see any unusual messages in the startup, but then it reboots after saying that it is starting local daemons. Since I have zfs on root, I was able to boot from a 14.3-RELEASE-p7 boot environment, but I can't run 15.0. Does anybody have any suggestions on how to debug this since I don't see anything useful in the log files? -- Carl Johnson carlj@peak.org
