freebsd-update - 10.0 to 10.1

Hi all.

So some feedback on this.

I went ahead and ignored the message to rebuild all Ports. 
No issues with that re: basic stability of the platform.

However, there seems to be an issue with IPfw. After the 
second "freebsd-update install" run, a reboot is 
unsuccessful due to some issue with IPfw. The box just hangs 
and does not reboot.

A hard reboot is required to restart the box, and after that 
all is well.

I've tested this without turning off IPfw, and with turning 
off IPfw prior to the upgrade, and the issue is the same. 
Very strange.

So this means that without some kind of iLO access to the 
server, a reboot requires remote hands for remote sites.

Not happy with this 10.1 upgrade :-(.

Mark.
