Description
On the first boot of a BE snapshot (e.g. after an upgrade), logging in too quickly causes BE verification to fail. Looking at the boot log over serial, this seems to happen because pfSense-upgrade exits with an error code:
Configuring filter for dynamic IPsec VPN hosts... done
Starting CRON... done.
Another instance is already running... Aborting!
*** SYSTEM BOOT FAILURE ***
System will reboot in 60 seconds...
Failed Boot Environment: quick-20240722161228
Next Boot Environment: default
R/r: Enter a recovery shell
Any: Reboot immediately
Enter an option:
The reason pfSense-upgrade errors out is because logging into the dashboard triggers an update check (enabled by default), hence the Another instance is already running message.

Enabling verbose output with touch /verbose_rc shows the following:
