Holger explained why it's not there. I opened a feature request
ticket, it's nice to have that, we'll get it added for 1.3.

AW: [pfSense Support] PFSense Notes Section

2008-05-27 Thread Holger Bauer
It was added to m0n0 after pfSense was forked. We never synced that code. You 
could however create a notes file using "diagnostics/edit file" somewhere. That 
one would not be backed up with the config of course.

I got into a m0n0wall box the other day, and realized they have a notes section 
on the homepage. Why was this taken out of PFSense? I would like to request it 
be added if it's not on the list already.

Thanks,
Adam

By chance did the VGA console come up with the menu?

Re: [pfSense Support] Help loading 1.2 embedded on ALIX board

My bios is .98.  I tried to upgrade the bios using the freedos3.zip file

monowall(to prove that I didn't mess up my new board).  It loaded and came
up on the first try.  15 mins later my home DSL was back online and working.

I would like to run PFSense instead of monowall but I need help.  Any
suggestions?
  


Upgrade to the 0.99 BIOS, what you're seeing is a BIOS bug on the ALIX.

I recommend following the "LBA image" instructions here:
