the CRC error is ok. But i got this error on another installation too, but after that it worked fine. So any more ideas? :)

Thanks for that I was trying to avoid having to take the firewall apart to change this box to PF guess I will have to take it to bits then

and 3)  -> OK then. Is enough for my test. tnx a lot

pfctl: DIOCSETSTATUSIF indicates a interface is present in the XML configuration but for some reason PF is not seeing the interface.  You may want to reset to factory defaults.

Did you try a biosupdate?

@Imajica: @jeroen234: setting a proxy server you do in youre internet browser Ah.  Then pfSense won't do what I need it to do… Yes, it will. What he's saying is that you just need to set the proxy option in the browser, not at the router.

I'm beginning to think Squid had something to do with it.  Since uninstalling Squid, I haven't had any lockups.  I'll report back with log excerpts if this changes.

oops! thanks for pointing that out… guess, hv to give up on this machine.  :-[

In the webgui at system>advanced.

thnx for ur help.

Freebsd doesn't like your cdrom dive/controller. Some of the messages can be ignored if it works (at one of my systems I get the read_big_illegal_requests too but it works), however your system is not able to boot up completely. Try setting your bios to pio mode for the cdrom drive (disable UDMA modes). Also see http://wiki.pfsense.com/wikka.php?wakka=BootOptions how to disable dma for atapi drives. If nothing helps try with another cdrom-drive. Oh, and next time don't shoot your image with such a high resolution  ;)

Hi Hoba, I am using FireFox and I also downloaded through Net Transport. I also tried different mirrors an I will try to extract it with a different program to extract the file. Greetings, Marcel I am now using WinRar and Nero is not complaining any more and I also found an posting about this: http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,2636.0.html Greetings, Marcel

I left the Motorola SB5100 modem unplugged for 10-15 mins and tried again. Same message. It does not get an IP address. I tried going to the modem page by going to 192.168.100.1 and copied the mac address down. I put than on pfSense and still the same issue. I don't get any IP address. I have noticed in the past that when I plug the SMC router into the modem, I initially get ip 192.168.100.10. Then when I release and renew, the modem learns my routers mac address and assigns me the real IP. If I clone the modems mac on the SMC router then I get the real IP without getting the 192.168.10.1 address first. Is there any one using pfSense with RCN Cable Internet?

My magic ball is broken. Post the contents of /tmp/installer.log after the failure. Use diagnostics -> Edit file from the webConfigurator to get the contents of the file.

ok np  ;)

Hoba tx a lot. You made my day :D Couldn't understand why it wouldn't work after RC3…

what did you do , because i'm having the same problem since upgrading to 1.0.1

I understand that IZarc is the problem here and like I said I was able to get it to work using the latest winrar. What I was asking for is a md5 hash of the ISO file itself INSIDE the .gz file that we download. I checked the md5 to see that all was right, but I can't burn that file so it was useless for me. It comes down to not being able to verify the integrity of the file you need to burn. Inclusion of the md5 hash of the actual ISO file that we need to burn in the future would be helpful. Thanks

Then scott is right.
