      @stephenw10:

      Some other thoughts while I think of it.
      There is another difference between the nanobsd and nanobsd_vga images. The straight nano images have dma disabled for the CF card interface. That's because many CF card readers do have required connections for DMA but the cards still report that they are DMA capable causing all sorts of trouble. However the nanobsd_vga image does not do this because it was developed for a specific device that will not boot if DMA is disabled. Could this be an issue here? I think it's probably just that it's trying to use com1 but that doesn't explain why it doesn't continue to boot in the background (flashing the HD LED).

      One possibility would be to pre-install a config file on the CF card with some interfaces setup and then use the web interface to configure from there.

      Steve

      All the successful boots I've had with pfSense (to the menu) or FreeDos (to the command prompt) is when the UDMA/SMART message hasn't appreared in the POST screen. When it does appear it just blank screens and hangs.

      The config file thing is a problem, I can't edit anything on the cf card when pfSense is on it, no go in windows or linux, so kinda stumped on that front.

      The VM way might be worth a go. Convert img to vdi, edit, convert back..

        You may be able to do this but I don't know if nanobsd checks or not:
        http://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Automatically_Restore_During_Install

        I would definitely try one of my images with autoexec edited for com2 instread of com1. That would at least indicate what the issue is.

        @Eams:

        This is interesting. Where exactly does this message appear? The fact that dma is disabled in the image should not affect the POST, how could it.

          I was actually looking at this on the FreeBSD website, it seems to be built into FreeBSD's nanobsd build - as it's documented on pfSense I would say it's safe to assume it's in pfSense nanobsd build too.

          I'll try out a autoexec with com2 in it and see how that goes. I've another cf card on order so that'll make it easier to deal with mulitple images.

          Yeah the UDMA/SMART thing is puzzling, I'll get a log from PuTTY later to show where it is.

            Something else while I think of it. You could potentially change the hardware resource settings for com2 in the BIOS so they use the com1 defaults. Of course you'd need to first mod the bios to open the settings.  ;)

              Not been on here as much as I expected recently however… I have made some progress!

              Forgive me for the lack of PuTTY log for the UDMA/SMART message :(

              I've managed to connect a monitor to the onboard VGA connector and I can now see whats happening!

              Having gotten nowhere with the nanobsd serial builds due to it being complied for COM1 and this machine having no COM1, I've been trying with the vga builds as they output to text. However they were still no good - it didn't redirect the text screen to COM2  :(

              While trying the above on build of pfSense-memstick-2.1-BETA1-i386-20130510-1628.img.gz I had the monitor attached but it's giving me errors about partitioning!

                  Loving your VGA hook up!  ;)

                  The memstick image expects to be connected via USB so if you put it on a CF card it will probably complain.

                  So with the monitor connected you still can't boot the nano_vga image?
                  Hmm, I wonder if it set to use dual consoles. I suspect that anything hard coded to talk to the com1 resources will have a problem when they are not available. You'd hope it would fail gracefully but I no idea.

                    Haha, the vga hookup was one of two ways and this was easiest that didn't involve cutting any wires or anything.

                    Only connected green as I figured it'd let me see everything - apart from bold white!

                    I'm just writing a nano_vga image as I type on the sandisk 4gig cf card - this one will take the 4gig image!

                        Right, that's what I mentioned earlier. The nanobsd_vga images have DMA enabled because of a specific device but many CF card slots do not have enough pins. Probably that's what's happening here.
                        Interrupt the boot process at the loader menu and do this:

                          My suspicion, based on the high LBA reported, is that your 4GB card is a bit short of providing 4GiB (1024 x 1024 x 1024) and the 4G image didn't quite fit. Some people have had to put a 2GB image on  a "4GB" card/stick. Note the card is reported having 3815MB which would allow a LBA of up to around 7630000 which is a bit short of the reported LBAs.

                          If I recall correctly, the FreeBSD GEOM component goes looking for a GEOM signature on the apparent last sector or two of the disk.

                            I put a 2g nano_vga 64bit image on the same card and got the same LBA error.

                            Did the set hw.ata.atapi_dma=0 thing too which stopped the LBA errors, however got a different LBA error!

                            Burning 2g nano_vga 32bit gives the same error on the same card (4gig SanDisk Ultra)

                            Booting up on the no name cf card with the same 32bit 2g nano_vga image gives no errors - no ser hw.ata.ata_dma=0 performed - wierd;

                              The 'nid not found' error is common and nothing to worry about:
                              http://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/DMA_and_LBA_Errors

                              I would guess that your no-name card is not DMA capable so didn't cause the problem.

                              Did it boot successfully then?

                                Damn I bought the exact same cf card that's in that link! I guess that's that error sorted then.

                                Yes it did boot, even with the LBA errors, looks like it was a combination of both errors mentioned by yourself and wallabybob.
                                Its pretty nippy to say the least  ;)
                                I gotta figure out how to set it up now. At least 10x GbE ports gives me plenty to play with haha!

                                I've contacted Lanner to see if I can get the BIOS for the 8750 this is based on, that would help even further.

                                  @Eams:

                                  The LCD seems to be the same as previous models as you say so should be ok.

                                  There is an arm/disarm led on the front, it hasn't lit up yet.

                                  There is some useful info there about the FW-8750 of which this board seems to be from:

                                  Platform
                                  Chipset: Intel Q35 + ICH9D0

                                  Eamon

                                  The LCD code assumes parallel port, so, at a minimum, the sdeclcd driver part of the lcdproc package should run. Might even work, too.

                                  For the LEDs, the driver code supports the various models based on standard PCI detection of the ICH. We definitely need to add an entry for this ICH9 in the driver code. Once you guys get around to it, can you confirm this is, in fact, an ICH9D0, identified by Vendor x8086, device x2914 (the numbers are listed on page 12 of the "Intel® I/O Controller Hub 9 (ICH9) Family Specification Update")?

                                  Generally, the LEDs can be wired off of the GPIO device part of this ICH (like in the older models), but, more likely, they are wired off of the SuperIO chip (like the XTM 5). A further screen shot seems to list an ITE8718. This is where the research comes in to identify which line these LEDs are wired off of. I'll be happy to code this in when it is discovered.

                                    Commence experimental probing!  ;D

                                    Since you don't have the Watchguard OS we can't look for clues in it's boot messages.

                                    Not using a Winbond sio chip, interesting.

                                    You could extract the bios code with flashrom and look at it for hidden menus.

                                    Steve

                                    Edit: Looks to be supported by superiotool as well.

                                      Ok, fired up lcdproc, but nothing seems to happen :(

                                      The boot up screen shows 'Starting package LCDproc…done.'

                                      Under Status: Services it shows as Stopped. Clicking to start it doesn't change it's status.

                                            To use either of those tools you have to install the FreeBSD package properly, so:

                                            As you are running NanoBD first remount the filesystem read-write

                                            [2.0.3-RELEASE][root@pfsense.fire.box]/root(1): /etc/rc.conf_mount_rw

                                            Then add the package. You have to specify the complete path beacsue FreeBSD 8.1 is now quite old

                                            [2.0.3-RELEASE][root@pfsense.fire.box]/root(2): pkg_add -r ftp://ftp-archive.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD-Archive/ports/i386/packages-8.1-release/Latest/superiotool.tbz
Fetching ftp://ftp-archive.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD-Archive/ports/i386/packages-8.1-release/Latest/superiotool.tbz... Done.

                                            same for flashrom

                                            [2.0.3-RELEASE][root@pfsense.fire.box]/root(3): pkg_add -r ftp://ftp-archive.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD-Archive/ports/i386/packages-8.1-release/Latest/flashrom.tbz
Fetching ftp://ftp-archive.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD-Archive/ports/i386/packages-8.1-release/Latest/flashrom.tbz... Done.
Fetching ftp://ftp-archive.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD-Archive/ports/i386/packages-8.1-release/All/libpci-3.1.7_1.tbz... Done.

                                            Then remount the filesystem read-only again

                                            [2.0.3-RELEASE][root@pfsense.fire.box]/root(4): /etc/rc.conf_mount_ro

                                            Finally issue a rehash to re-index the new files so FreeBSD knows where to find them

                                            [2.0.3-RELEASE][root@pfsense.fire.box]/root(5): rehash

                                            Now you run the tools.  :)

                                            After you install the lcdproc-dev package via the pfSense GUI you have to configure the various parameters before it will run and then start the service manually the first time in Status: Services:

                                            Steve
