If all the details are cleared, it would be very helpful to post the steps for the recent upgrade process (I mean with post upgrade tweaks if they are necessary). I multiboot on my N5 and I have to say Sailfish is the OS that I like the most.

This is how I have done. (I also use multirom on Nexus 5 and accordingly my need switching between Sailfish versions 3.2.0.12 and 2.0.4.13.)

Inspired by @sailor's post

Edit: I amended the steps because @mautz has created repo for direct update to 3.2.0.12. Therefore no longer need to update to 3.1.0.12 but we can directly go to 3.2.0.12.

======= Upgrade 3.0.3.9 to 3.2.0.12 =======
1. Install 3.0.3.9 (multiboot or as main rom - use @sailor's post as that contains a well organized, step by step instruction)
2. Enable developer mode and set a password
3. Connect the phone to a PC and on the PC run:
ssh nemo@192.168.2.15

Still on the PC command line:
4. check repos:

Code:

ssu lr

5. Remove adaptation-community (not to mix with adaptation-community-common):

Code:

ssu dr adaptation-community

6. add new adaptation-community-hammerhead repo:

Code:

ssu ar adaptation-community-hammerhead http://repo.merproject.org/obs/home:/mautz:/sfos-latest/sailfishos_3.2.0.12_latest/

7. add new adaptation-community-common-hammerhead repo as well:

Code:

ssu ar adaptation-community-common-hammerhead http://repo.merproject.org/obs/nemo:/devel:/hw:/common/sailfishos_3.2.0.12/

8. put the device in release mode

Code:

ssu release 3.2.0.12

Go back to phone and do:
9. open Fingerterm and login as root:

Code:

devel-su (login)

10. Change password (this is required otherwise the su command in next step will fail:

Code:

passwd root (enter the password you set in step 2, as the screen requires)

11. Go back to PC command line and do:

Code:

su (enter the give password at previous step)
pkcon refresh
version –dup
reboot

Then as root I installed and copied over the bits and bobs I needed from my other intact 3.0.3.9 rom.
I hope this helps.
