          • blinking wont boot

          following this post http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,13671.0.html
          they seem to be having same problem and think it might be because of the LBA
          not being able to set it manually, because of something with pfsense and the way it uses LBA.

          I can install  and boot FreeBSD 7.1 with no problem but not pfsense
