Shared object "libsys.so.7" not found

[Abhid]

Yesterday I tried to upgrade FreeBSD from version 13.x to 15.0-RELEASE However, I now get this error :

freebsd-update ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libsys.so.7" not found

'What I've tried so far' :

I tried Craig's solution mentioned here : https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=289769

But that entire rescue path mentioned, doesn't exist. Also, there's no Wi-Fi connectivity and so, even though if the rescue path were to be created, how would I download the patch ?

how would I download the patch ?

It's not a 'patch', it's a script that tries to fix the issue.

Anyway, you can download it on a different machine and put it on a USB stick (FAT32 formatted). Then copy it from the USB stick onto the machine.
