# DragonFly Release 2.4
+
+# Possible Upgrade Issues
+
+* The kernel is unable to find the root and stops at the mountroot prompt.
+ Due to the upgrade the drive may have changed names.
+ * Hit scroll-lock on the console, scroll up and locate the root drive.
+ * For BOOT+HAMMER try specifying: "hammer:xxxs1d", where xxx is the drive.
+ * For UFS try specifying: "ufs:xxxs1a", where xxx is the drive.
+ * Once you get the system up you may have to remount / read-write, then
+ fix /etc/fstab and adjust /boot/loader.conf as necessary to specify
+ the root mount using vfs.root.mountfrom="hammer:serno/<SERIALNUMBER>.s1d"
+ (for example). We recommend specifying mount points by serial number,
+ using /dev/serno/<SERIALNUMBER>.s1<partition> as necessary.
+
+* Your kernel and world are out of sync.
+ * Try booting into single user mode and complete the installation.
+ * Or boot the CD and re-upgrade.
+
+* HAMMER-only installation fails with BTX errors or is unable to load
+ the loader, or kernel.
+ * An algorithmic bug in the loader's HAMMER implementation causes the
+ loader to improperly parse file data in some cases.
+ * All we can recommend here is to switch to a BOOT+HAMMER installation,
+ which is fully supported and actually considerably easier to manage.
+ You can steal 256MB from your swap partition to create a UFS boot
+ partition, naming it 'a'. Then copy the HAMMER /boot into it
+ (directly, not as a subdirectory called 'boot').
+
# Known Issues

+* Possible issues with kqueue operations getting stuck (w/ postfix).
