        simply that i'm looking for somebody  who know how to transfer pfsense
        from a standalone system to this kit.

I would suggest using Diagnostics/Backup/restore on the current system
to save a copy of the configuration in a .xml file.

        Done.  in fact i have two copies.

Then install pfSense on the new machine by whatever means are
available -- I think the current two options are bootable CD-R and
bootable USB stick, but there may be others for embedded systems  --
I'm not familiar with those.


        That is axactly my problem.  This is a tiny 4watt kit type
        deal, all solid state with with memory that requires some
        special kind of burner.  [I have the latest pfSense tarball
        and my .xml restore/update file.  ... so, software side, i'm
        all set.]

I use pfSense, but my system (based on an Alix 2D3 board) has a compact flash drive, so I simply dd the disk image onto the CF card on my normal FBSD box, and plug it into the Alix, which is the usual way of deploying embedded pfSense. What hardware are you using? Does it have any CF or SD card capability, or maybe a USB port?
