upgrading ids 4.1 to IPS 5

[dnd.cirt]

I have a 4235 with 4.1 I am trying to upgrade with IPS-K9-maj-5.0-1e-S149.rpm.pkg the sensor does it's reboot but in the end it just hangs on "uncompressing Linux....ok, booting the kernel" any idea why it stops there.

Call me stupid but I always have the same problem so I have got in the habit of backing up my config on the IDS and downloading the new .img file for the upgrades. I have had that happen to me way to many times.. It wont happen if you use the .img file though.. I promise you that ;)

Note: I said i backed up my IDS config because if you use the .img file you lose the config on the IDS as well.. Just an FYI.
