Upgrade from 9.10.2 -> 11.1.RELEASE taking 12+ hours

[verindil]

Hey all, story time:

I was running 9.10.2 for a good amount of time and was taking backups of my config every 3 months or so.
2 weeks ago my motherboard had a short and bit the dust, I could not order the same MoBo again as I could not find it I built out a new system.

Specs:
PSU: CORSAIR SF Series SF450 450W
MOBO: ASRock C236 WSI Mini ITX
RAM: 2x Kingston Technology ValueRAM 8GB 2400MHz DDR4 ECC CL17 DIMM (KVR24E17S8/8)
PROC: Intel Pentium G4600 Kaby Lake Dual-Core 3.6 GHz LGA 1151
BOOT DRIVE: Samsung 850 EVO SSD
DATA DRIVES: 3x 3TB drives in zfs (80% full)

For the life of me I could not get 9.10.2 up and running I kept on hitting the "Stuck on loading kernel modules" issue detailed here https://forums.freenas.org/index.php?threads/stuck-on-loading-kernel-modules.50046/ so I installed 11.1.RELEASE and got everything up and running.

When I went to restore from my old config FreeNas took the config, redirected me to the "FreeNas is restarting" page and now for the past 12 hours the console for the rig is scrolling so fast I cant make out anything major. Photo of logs here -> https://photos.app.goo.gl/tMbVa4CO26pGsird2

Is this normal behavior?

Did you resolve this? If not, try a fresh install of 11.1 on a different stick to see if that boots. If it does, you can then try restoring your config.
