      It says ' Trying to mount root from ufs:/dev/ufs/pfsense'

      use a usb image, and plug it into the front ports, not the blue usb 3.0 ports in the back.

      also note the

      da0: <generic 9454="" storage="" device="">Removable Direct Access SCSI-0 device SMP: AP CPU #2 Launched!
      da0: 40.000MB/s transfers

      might claim 40MB, but its attached via usb 2.0 and while I did boot from SD for fun, many of my
      usb sticks are faster than the SD card.</generic>

          I was also looking at the DS61 but found the E drivers most of the time aren't working but after seeing your post I decided to order it :)
          What pfsense version are you using on the ds61?

            What pfsense version are you using on the ds61?

            I was running esxi and played with several pfsense guests, but now I'm running 2.0.2 non-nano amd64.  It seems silly to have LAG and vlans config on the switch, storage and vswitch config in esxi then of all the pfsense config. We are competing with a $75 home router anyway, so how much config fun does one want? :-)

            anyway, I have enough stuff on it now to not feel guilty.

                In March Shuttle will start shipping DS61 v1.1 with two more USB 2.0 ports on the front.

                Also a new BIOS is available that during S3 sleep mode, the power consumption is dropped from 10W(old
                DS61) to 5W(new DS61-v1.1) to fulfill the new EU requirement.

                  I did read about that yes :) Does it run on the same hardware aside from that?
                  I tried running the 2.1 beta but I think it's far too buggy to run in production as I would get an IP but had no internet, and the 2.0.2 version doesn't work at all because pfsense need at least 1 working interface.

                  I'm now running an esx version on it as it supported all hardware automatically ( which is a miracle on itself seeing vmware does not support much consumer hardware :) )

                  And I'm now running pfsense inside esx for about 3 days without any problems.

                    The bios file is exactly the same:

                    sum  DS61D000-1.203/DOS/DS61D000.203 DS61D000.203/DOS/DS61D000.203
                    63712 4096 DS61D000-1.203/DOS/DS61D000.203
                    63712 4096 DS61D000.203/DOS/DS61D000.203

                    so my guess is the MB is exactly the same.

                        another P2P test, this time showing lots of connections


                        and continue to have a good experience with two RealTek 8111E

                              So this is just a bare bones system? How much am I looking (ball park) once I buy components for home user? give price range from low end components to higher end?

                                Just below $300.

                                Besides the DS61 you need CPU, RAM, (mSATA-) SSD.

                                      A DS61 blends into the average low voltage wall.

                                          Are those mouse traps near the precariously dangling Dell power adapter?

                                          The natural wood background is very nice.
