Bug #7989
closedCannot update Nano from 2.3.4 to 2.3X snapshots
0%
Description
Testing using 2.3.4_1 Nano 64bit CE and trying to update to a 2.3.5 snapshot.
I can see the snapshot reported as avaliable once the correct branch is selected in update settings.
When I try to upgrade is the "Nanobsd is no longer supported...." error and the update quits.

You need to select the Security/Errata only branch in update settings.

Security/Errata is not a choice there. I have Stable, Development or Next Major Version.
Next major version obviously fails as there's no Nano in 2.4 but Dev shows the expected 2.3.5 snapshot.

You have some weird system. It definitely is a choice here, and for others.

- Status changed from New to Confirmed
- Assignee set to Renato Botelho
The difference appears to be in which version of pfSense-repo and pfSense-upgrade are on the box. Depending on the state of the system, it may or may not have the options you expect and even if it does, they may not work if the repo data and upgrade package are from 2.4, trying to upgrade you there.
There is some room for improvement here.
In the meantime, set the repo to "Development Snapshots" and then run this to get it to the expected state:
pkg install -fy pfSense-repo pfSense-upgrade

New versions of pfSense-upgrade force to reinstall itself when version differs from remote repo. It should be enough
