        Have you tried searching the forum? If you installed the embedded or nano versions and you're not connected to the serial console that is expected.

          pfSense-1.2.3-RELEASE-LiveCD-Installer.iso.gz

              i solved it now.

              i installed the newest bios, and did an reinstall of pfsense.

              and now it works. :)

              i had to do an reinstall, otherwise pfsense wouldnt start…
