Thanks, Ill setup and take to location in a few hours for testing.  Ill let you know.

Under diagnostics -> Backup/Restore … click on backup config and save it wherever you like.

OpenNTPD is gone from 2.0.2 and 2.1. It's ntp.org's daemon now on both.

@GullMoli: I'm quite slow when it comes to linux and working around in the shell environment so I'm having some trouble with this. pfSense is based on FreeBSD which is very similar to Linux in some aspects and quite different in other aspects. @GullMoli: (I cant figure out how to edit that file, or even get to it :l) How you tried the pfSense GUI function Diagnostics -> Edit File?

Hello guys, I´m having the same issue to upgrade. The packages to be removed are the original ones? I mean the "1.2.3-relaese packages", because the "Installed packages" I have none. Thanks. Jorge Eston

What you are describing is like you seeing only one NIC.

Ehh. I was just hoping  ;). While that wasn't my biggest concern, I'm glad to hear that I'm able to make changes and still reboot the device(retaining those changes). I just got my ALIX in the mail today…unfortunately, dumb me left my null modem cable at work...and now I'm hungry so there's no way I'm going back tonight! THANKS for the info though!

From the trouble shooting link, the below is what cured my install! Thanks 8) Try using multiple partitions, one small one (~4GB) for / and another for /usr using the rest of the disk.

There are many ways to get in, even adding a rule on the CLI… http://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/I_locked_myself_out_of_the_WebGUI,_help!

@Alan87i: If I run the upgrade too the july 6 snap do you think it will work or die? You mean 2.0.1 RELEASE? Normally, backup your settings and then updgrade. Take a look on packages topic to see if there is any current issue with packages you use.

thanks for your reply

i try this thx

thanks jimp! pfSense-memstick-2.1-DEVELOPMENT-amd64-20120702-2135.img.gz recognized the AHCI mode.

@cmb: now I did, and it works, at least on the fxp NICs.

ok solved it. For any who have similar issue PFsense (any version) cannot be installed using a live CD. You have to physically pull the drive and connect it to a PC then install pfsense, unplug it right after it reboots and it will then work. be great if this pita bug could be fixed.
