      You have to use a full  install and set it to embedded mode after installation (see http://faq.pfsense.com/index.php?action=artikel&cat=4&id=78&artlang=en&highlight=full%20install  but use the word "embedded" instead of "wrap"; I'll update the faq entry later).
      The embedded image has a custom kernel with removed vga and keyboard support, so it's not doable by modding the image.

              You need the *.img.gz file. Just write your cfmedia with physdiskwrite.

                  The full install is the ISO.  http://www.pfsense.org/index.php?id=22

                      The LiveCD once booted has an option on the menu to install to HD. What type of embedded system is this. Do you have an IDE port, if so hook up a cdrom drive, install pfsense and change /etc/platform to embedded.
