      Hello,

      I try to install pfsense on my firebox x700.

      My first question is:

      It's possible to use CF card (1Go) with this hardware?
      (dd if=/Users/netgus/Downloads/pfSense-2.0.1-RELEASE-1g-i386-nanobsd.img of=/dev/disk1 bs=1) with my Mac OSX lion

      The hardware boot, but after the reboot, the appliance emits a little tune and then nothing. I give to you boot informations.

      1  pfSense
      2  pfSense

        I take it that output is from the serial console?
        It's a known bug. There are several work arounds, this is the one I used: http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,7458.msg241783.html#msg241783

        Of course to do that you need access to the box. If you have setup the interfaces on the first boot, it looks like you have, you should be able to connect to the web GUI on LAN.

        Alternatively you can try mounting the CF card under OSX and editing the files there.
