Hi, I tried to upgrade my single node to 9. I ran
Code: 
 pve8to9 --full
and did not get any warning. All seem to be good. updated the sources and stopped running VM/CTs. after
Code: 
apt dist-upgrade
ran fetching and extracting all the new packages, the process got stuck. Had to reboot the server and now I seem to have lost network when I boot into older version.
Have attached journalctl log file for the day. Upgrade process started at around 12:00 (for reference in the log)

I understand that there is something about network nomenclature in v9, however not sure if that is the issue I am facing or something more.

I ran
INI: 
dpkg --configure -a
and it seem to have completed the upgrade process and solved the network issue.
 
could you post the relevant entries from /var/log/apt/term.log and /var/log/apt/history.log ?

This actually made things worse for me. I rebooted right after and it turns out I was supposed to run some GRUB update commands, and UEFI boot was broken. I had to clone my entire boot SSD to an external drive and use legacy boot on another PC to get it back up. Even then, no network... what a mess
 
Nah I already clean installed and restored my VMs, problem solved. Not worth the time to troubleshoot this sort of thing. I suepect it had something to do with my install being a BTRFS install

But the filesystem has nothing to do with network issues so I doubt that btrfs is at fault. It's more likely there was another issue in your setup
