Hi All,
I want to install the wireless card, but the pfsense collapse… :'(
i reinstall the pfsense many times...i only use default config is fail too, the following is my install step,
1, In webUI, assign Opt1 to ath0.
2, In Opt1 config area, "Enable Interface", set the SSID and chose "Ad-hoc (IBSS)" as the mode.
3, "Save" and then "Apply Changes"and then well show this error message, can't to do anything, only reboot...reboot..reboot...

kingstron ddr3 1333 4G
kingstron 8G cf card
atheros AR5B91 b/g/n mPCI-epfsense version:
pfSense-2.0.1-RELEASE-4g-i386-nanobsd.img.gz 07-Jan-2012attachment is the full logs.
please help me , thanks a lots!!!@@

The log doesn't provide conclusive evidence that the problem is related to the wireless interface.
I suggest you remove the wireless interface and see if the pfSense system boots cleanly. It will almost certainly prompt you for the interfaces assignment because one of the previous interfaces is missing. If it boots cleanly then change the configuration to disable the wireless interface, shutdown, restore the wireless interface and reboot. Does it then boot cleanly?
I suspect pfSense wireless interfaces are much more commonly run in Access Point mode or Infrastructure mode than Ad-hoc mode so I would be inclined to try to enable the wireless interface in Access Point mode (first) or Infrastructure mode and see if that rectifies the problem. You are probably more likely to find bugs in less frequently used sections of code.

Hi, thx for your replay.
I sure the system boots is cleanly, but choose ad-hoc mode is collapse too…
and i try to use Infrastructure mode, it can save and config, but the state is show "no carrier", and the clients can't find the wifi...

If you have multiple WiFi clients wanting to associate with pfSense WiFi then the pfSense WiFi interface needs to operate in Access Point mode.
