I don't reinstall from an image, but run pkg update almost daily, and have
rarely (maybe once, a long time ago) run into anything that didn't boot
properly again (such that I had to boot an older BE and get rid of the failed
one). That's as VirtualBox guests (usually current VirtualBox, except that
right now, 6.1.20 aborted VMs on startup, so I reverted to 6.1.18 and its
extension pack, which is fine), on a macOS host (currently Mojave).
