FreeBSD does not boot after "Booting..."

Hello,

I updated my FreeBSD 10.4-RELEASE-p9 to 11.2 using freebsd-update. After second reboot it won't boot again.

ok
Booting...

I tried to boot in Single or in Verbose mode - nothing changed.

I turned off ACPI and now I see endless loop with Hotplug Interrupt

Hotplug Interrupt: 0x8
Presence Detect Changed to empty
Hotplug Interrupt: 0x48
Presence Detect Changed to card present

FreeBSD 10.2 reached end-of-life in December 2016. You need to rollback to 10.2, upgrade to the lasted patch and then try to perform upgrade to 11.3. And even after those steps is possible the upgrade to fail. Best solution is to reinstall the system from scratch.

Usually, FreeBSD does not require reinstalling, and upgrades work well. In the case of upgrading over such a long distance, it will (a) be a bit more work, and (b) have more risk of something getting broken. If you don't have a lot of customization or data, then a clean install might be a better idea.

/usr/lib/libssh.so.5 is vanished somehow...
A: That won't prevent booting.
B: libssh has not existed, at least since 11.2. So it not being there after upgrade is normal. That has something to do with a new ssh implementation, and I'm too lazy to look up or remember the details right now.
 
*Many hours later*

I did not understand why ACPI does not work, but I finished the update.
10.4p9 -> 10.4p13 ->11.3->12.1
