        Can you try booting legacy?

        It looks like it stops just before the drive detection. Though it could also be before the CPU frequency driver loads (est). The n100 has presented some odd power/freq values in other systems.

          @fireodo said in pfsense freezes:

          a similar error occurred on 2.6.0

          and at the same spot. The uart0 (a serial or COM port) is detected - it crashes on on that one, or on the one right after it.

          This is what I have (FreeBSD 15, using 24.03) :

          12cb212b-4cb6-47ec-b447-92782df88563-image.png

          I tend to say : use the VGA version - and disable upfront the COM ports in BIOS.
          I'm afraid something like ACPI can't be disabled ...

          Next best bet : get a generic FreeBSD 15 or 14 ISO, usb-key it, and try that.

          No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
          Edit : and where are the logs ??

            @stephenw10 the bios is truncated and cannot be loaded into legacy or disable com ports
            I'm more inclined to conclude that this box is not compatible 😞

              Could be. Testing a FreeBSD 14 or 15 image would be a good test.

                @stephenw10 Okay, I'll do it and come back with feedback.

                    @stephenw10 I found a solution, it is necessary to register during installation

                    set hint.uart.0.disabled="1"
                    set hint.uart.1.disabled="1"
                    boot

                      After installation you'll need to edit the /boot/device.hints file with the edits as mentioned by OP.

                        You should put those in /boot/loader.conf.local so they do not get overridden at upgrade.
