This is probably fine. freebsd-update is very slow on slow drives because it
does gazillions of small read and write operations.

I have installed Nomad on my hard drive.
Opening Sakura as settler and Sudo freebsd-version -kru, the system
shown
is FreeBSD 12.1 p1. Then running Sudo freebsd-update fetch shows a list
of
files to be downloaded/updated to 12.1-RELEASE- p2. Many of the files
are
listed as "rescue". I started the process over 1.5 hours ago, the
computer
hard drive light is blinking very occasionally, and it seems as if
nothing
is happening. Please advise if I am "messing things up" and this
process is
not necessary under Nomad. If not, have I done or not done something
necessary that will speed up and make the process work, as the next
step
will be freebsd-update install.
Thank you in advance,
