bootloop since 9.x.y

[rmmonster]

Greeting,
I'm new to FreeNAS and have trouble upgrading from 8.3.something to any of the 9.anotherthing.something releases. First I tried it with the GUI upgrade, but since that didn't worked (I got stuck in a bootloop), I have started to "burn" the images onto the USB-Drive directly.

The problem accures on all releases since the 9.0.0 release. The systems starts and seems fine at first until it has initialized the network devices. After that it just rebootes, no core dump, no log, no nothing. I videotaped the boot and found something, what might be the problem. The actual crash occures after

Code:

add net [...]
Generating host.conf
ELF ldconfig path: /lib /usr/lib [...]
a.out ldconfig path: ldconfig: /var/run/ld.so.hints:No such file ord directory
No system volume configured!
Creating and/or trimming log files.
Starting syslog.
Starting watchdogd.
debug.ddb.textdump.pending: 0 -> 1
debug.debugger_on_panic: 1 -> 1
No core dumps found.

I can't figgure what this means. As an addition, at the beginning of the boot there are multiple lines which say

Code:

[ : : bad number

and

Code:

Error: attempt to write a readonly database

right after

Code:

mountroot: waiting for device /dev/ufs/FreeNASa1a
a1a:[...somethings...]

I will add the hardware specification tomorrow. I will also upload the video to *someplace* so I don't need to type the whole boot log. thanks in advance

Have you found a solution yet? I am having almost same issue where is freenas 9.2.1.5 just stocks forever "no core dumps" I've also reported this issue https://bugs.freenas.org/issues/5001
but so far no response as of yet
One more thing you mention that you didn't have any problem when you were on v.9, however from this forum http://forums.freenas.org/index.php...talls-at-no-core-dumps-found.9865/#post-51382
looks like it was ongoing issue since 8.3
