I posted this under hardware. On of my guys thought that might be a better place to ask.

Thanks

Hey, great, glad to hear it!!

Guess I have to reinstall :(

http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,7001.0.html

The embedded version does not have any VGA output. Connect and configue per Serial port.

Upgrade the secondary first, then the primary.

We recommend reinstalling on the embedded platforms.  We are still ironing the upgrade bugs out.

@cmb:

Not when the BIOS has bugs that we can't easily work around, that's why you have to upgrade the BIOS.

I'll second this.  We have a pfSense box in production that started out rather randomly flakey.  After some experimentation we checked the manufacturer website and found there was a new BIOS that fixed some PCI timing issues.  Loaded it and everything works great since!

From memory this has come up before - search the forum.

I can confirm this crash also.

You have more than one core so the multi-processor option is probably the best choice.

@MageMinds:

I have installed pfSense from the LiveCD onto my 512 MB CF connected using a CF to IDE adapter. I have removed the swap partition and then I choosed the "Embeded Kernel", but in the System Status the platform say "pfSense". Shouldn't it say "Embeded" also I have access to the "Packages" wich from the forum I'm not supposed to be able to install them.

I have installed pfSense 1.0.1 from the LiveCD on a CF like you.
The trick to convert it to "embedded" is to run this command:
echo embedded > /etc/platform
and reboot.

I used the windows version of dd to copy my working 128MB CF to an image, using this command:

dd id=f: (replace with yours) of=pfsense128mb.img

Then I inserted the new 1024MB CF into the USB reader and used physdiskwrite.exe to restore the image. Ofcourse, my 1GB CF is now seen as a 128MB one. My Alix2c3's are now booting from the new 1GB CF cards.

try to use 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220

they are OpenDNS http://www.opendns.com/ and worth a try

Quick Update:

I found out what the problem was…..I had to go to Interfaces -->then choose "assign" then choose and add the actual MAC address of the wireless NIC (from the drop down menu).  Once I did that, I saw the actual interface listed as OPT1 (which you can rename it if you like i.e. WLAN).

Needless to say, there was one more step left and that was to "Enable" the interface that I had just added.  For some odd reason, I kept thinking that the wireless NIC interface will "automatically" be detected and listed in the "Interfaces" menu (goes to show you how little I know!!)

Eventually, I got it working through my wireless NIC.

Thanks for the help.

it seems to connect to http port, but there is no dialog … only get timeout
