RE: [pfSense Support] CDROM ISO boot using input/output from COM1 (Serial)?
Probably a miss configuration in the bios then... it boots up fine in the other machine? Check the bios first... Then you can pull all cards and peripherals and see if it boots. If it boots put them cards and peripherals back in one by one till you find the conflict. -Tim -Original Message- From: Kyle Mott [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, February 01, 2007 3:25 PM To: support@pfsense.com Subject: Re: [pfSense Support] CDROM ISO boot using input/output from COM1 (Serial)?

just do like what was stated earlier and install pfsense onto the HDD while its attached to a different computer and move it over later. - Original Message - From: "Chris Buechler" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Wednesday, January 31, 2007 3:05 PM Subject: Re: [pfSense Support] CDROM ISO boot using input/output from COM1 (Serial)?

Re: [pfSense Support] CDROM ISO boot using input/output from COM1 (Serial)?
Ok, I got it to (sort of) boot by getting a video card installed. However, when I boot from the USB CDROM, I get "Unable to load kernel" and it dumps me to the boot loader prompt. I saw this link on a FreeBSD mailing list, is this the same issue? Any way to get around it with pfsense? http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-stable/2007-January/032446.html -Kyle Tim Dickson wrote: It will work... just means you missed something somewhere.

Create a config.xml on a different system with enabled serial console. Then move it to a dos formatted usbstick as /conf/config.xml and bootup the livecd with the stick attached.
