[pfSense Support] Beta 3 Compact Flash CF Boot Failures
Hi I have tried booting from a 256M MUSE CF card in a Addonics CF / IDE converter in several PC's, booting won't complete. Using the standard file it always stalls at: Loading /boot/defaults/loader.conf / I have also tried installing using: http://shopping.hacom.net/catalog/pub/pfsense/pfSense-1.0-BETA3-256-ad0.img.gz I note grub starts, and FreeBSD install starts, however it also fails somewhere around comments about the IDE / CF card. The CF card was written by dragging and dropping the images onto physdiskwrite.exe, so no install options were selected. Any suggestions would be appreciated, thanks in advance.

Embedded images have the output redirected to serial console as most embedded devices don't have graphicscards (soekris, wrap, ...). Hook up a serial cable and use something like hyperterminal or teraterm to view the output at 9600 baud.
