Proxmox VE 5.0 Beta Update

[Ashley]

Have an issue trying to update the 5.0 beta, it currently get's stuck at the following:

dpkg --configure -a
Setting up pve-manager (5.0-9) ...
Setting up initramfs-tools (0.128) ...
update-initramfs: deferring update (trigger activated)
Setting up pve-kernel-4.10.8-1-pve (4.10.8-6) ...
Examining /etc/kernel/postinst.d.
run-parts: executing /etc/kernel/postinst.d/apt-auto-removal 4.10.8-1-pve /boot/vmlinuz-4.10.8-1-pve
run-parts: executing /etc/kernel/postinst.d/initramfs-tools 4.10.8-1-pve /boot/vmlinuz-4.10.8-1-pve
update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-4.10.8-1-pve

Any ideas or known issue?

if you kill the update-initramfs process and subsequently call it with "update-initramfs -v -u" what does it report?

Goes through a lot of output and then hang's at:

that looks good (apart from the hang). what does "cat /proc/$(pidof cpio)/stack" and "cat /proc/$(pidof cpio)/status" say? is /boot on ZFS? or ext4/xfs? is there enough free space?

Is an EFI setup, running on hardware RAID, plenty of space.

Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
udev 126G 0 126G 0% /dev
tmpfs 26G 894M 25G 4% /run
/dev/mapper/pve-root 94G 13G 77G 15% /

tmpfs 26G 0 26G 0% /run/user/0
/dev/fuse 30M 60K 30M 1% /etc/pve

With the two cat commands not sure how I can get the pid of cpio, tried a grep of ps aux but couldnt'd find anything and running the commands as they are just gives:

cat /proc/$(pidof cpio)/stack
cat: /proc//stack: No such file or directory

does "ps faxl | less" show any child processes of update-initramfs ?
