ESX 4.0u1 upgrade to 4.1 with esxupdate hangs

Hi,

I have trouble upgrading my VMware ESX 4.0u1 to 4.1

when I use the command "esxupdate --bundle=upgradefile update"

The upgrade process begins, but now only the following error messages appera

"Error during version check: The system call API checksum does not match

(0xe54b046e kernel != 0xd0531d21 user)."

I'm not sure if the update still runs, because when I hit enter on the console I go to the command prompt root@esx #

But after some seconds the messages

"Error during version check: The system call API checksum does not match

(0xe54b046e kernel != 0xd0531d21 user)."

reoccur.

This now goes on for about 2 hours.

I attached the esxupdate.log

The installation of the pre-upgrade zip-bundle which started at seemed to work ok, but the installation of the upgrade zip-bundle doesn't.

Should I ignore the errors and start the upgrade again ?

Kind regards,

Martin
