      Just received it, tried to connect via GUI but could not connect to the default IP. Got a console connection up and I can see it's stuck in a boot loop. Not happy.


      mode = 0100666, inum = 139583, fs = /build/factory-crossbuild-244/work/aarch64/pfSense-sg1100
      panic: ffs_valloc: dup alloc
      cpuid = 1
      Uptime: 26s
      Automatic reboot in 15 seconds - press a key on the console to abort

      Any ideas before I send it back?

        Resolved as in this thread:
        https://forum.netgate.com/topic/134042/sg-1000-stuck-in-boot-loop-after-initial-configuration

        The trick I initially missed was to run fsck multiple times in a row -- 4 times I think I did.

          Only took three tries for me to get a clean file system, but went for four just for good luck.

          Thanks for the hint!
