    If you were using pfSense on a bare-metal device, you wouldn't see any issues.

    @bahman said in error occur under startup:

    qemu

    So this concerns "VM" or "Virtualisation" => see here Home > pfSense® Software > Virtualization
    as this is not an installation problem, pfSEnse or the software that boots / installs pfSense doesn't get even the chance to start.
    The messages shown are from the VM host.

    I tend to say : a qemu problem.

    Just today the printer dropped out again, but I cannot find a reason for it.

    I assigned the printer to 192.168.1.120 in pfsense. When I type the ip address I get a printer settings page in the browser so I know I am communicating with the printer. However, when I try to print I get a network error in the print queue.

    I'm still using the Netgear R6700v3, but as a wireless access point only. I'll try turning it off and using only the Unifi Lite AP instead.

    EDIT:
    I since pulled my R6700v3 even as an access point, connected the printer to the Unifi Lite, then removed and reinstalled the printer drivers. Printing is back. I'm pretty sure all my printer issues originated from the R6700v3.

    I solved the problem. After installing the patch, I added Pre Shared Key on the IPsec side and the problem was resolved.

    You can't downgrade in place. But you should be able to upgrade to the 21.02 release from there since it will newer.

    Otherwise if you need to be back on 2.4.5p1 now open a ticket with and we'll get straight back to with the recovery image: https://go.netgate.com/

    Sorted it out. I learned about the CIDR table and the subnet I needed. Set fields. Restarted router. Done!

    The external config locator will check attached fat32 devices for a config.xml file and automatically pull it in at boot:
    https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/backup/restore-during-install.html#restore-using-the-external-configuration-locator-ecl

    But that is only after installing. There is no way to install pfSense entirely headless.

    What are you installing onto?

    So you plan to have two connections between the modem and the existing router and you want to put the SG-2100 in one of them?

    I thing we might need a diagram here.

    If you have replaced the drive and reinstalled the NDI should have remained the same.

    If you open a ticket with us we can get try to find device keys used by that NDI.

    just an update I guess.
    Have installed PFsense to a PCI riser -64gb Kingston M.2 SSD
    Removed the horrible raid card and 160gb SAS disks. it was a heck of a job updating its firmware, but its fairly quiet with BMC and bios update and got rid of ther ebay smell from it.
    Seem's to be around 40w being on so its already less then the firebox just being on. this R210 came with a X3430, but ill look at getting a L chip to lower the number abit.
    Im pleased I managed to get 24 port WS-2950-24 from work.

    @mcury said in Cannot boot kernel with SMP enabled:

    @tomlawesome Oh, SMP, somehow I read SMT in your topic, ehhe, don't know how that happened..
    SMT would be Simultaneous multithreading

    Easy mistake to make! No harm done, and I learned something in the process!

    Hi Team discard the above request as I figured out that netgate was stuck in sequence and I went through console port and made factory reset to start from begining.
