Thx for the help..
I guess you are right... I followed instructions here
http://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/HOWTO_Install_pfSense#Linux
And overwrote like you said my CentOS install... Now Console is showing
kernel panic after I rebooted it..
Any way to boot off my old install and not from the img I installed using:
zcat pfsense-embedded.img.gz | dd of=/dev/sd[a] bs=16k

No linux commands are working like ls, etc...only pwd cd

Uh oh... I think I see where this is headed...
Did you blindly follow the wiki instructions and write the pfSense image to
/dev/sda? If your system's internal drive is /dev/sda, you just overwrote the
beginning sectors of your hard drive (the actual amount depending on the
image size you downloaded). This would explain the problems you're
experiencing.
Plus, 'pfctl -d' will only work from *INSIDE* the running pfSense system, not
on your Linux system used to flash the pfSense image.
Can you clarify what steps you took exactly to get where you are now? Maybe
send us the output of 'uname' and 'dmesg' from your system so we can see your
environment?
