Description

I have an APU with an atheros wireless card.

When doing an update from 2.2.0 to 2.2.1 this morning, the reboot stopped because it couldn't find the wireless card ath0.

This device also connects using PPPoE so that config was blown away by interface reassignment.

Easy enough to reconfigure, but if I'd been doing it remotely, would have killed access to the firewall.

Do you want to set up VLANs first?                                              

If you are not going to use VLANs, or only for optional interfaces, you should  
say no here and use the webConfigurator to configure VLANs later, if required.  

Do you want to set up VLANs now [y|n]? re0: link state changed to UP            
re1: link state changed to UP

What other details can I supply to help identify this?

I suggest the interface reassignment checks to see if the missing interface is "important", ie if its a WAN interface, before jumping to reassignment. Or simply ignore the missing interface and configure as much as possible.
