Hallo,
i have the same problems with my apu, but instead of pfsense i use ipcop.
things done:
= install to USB-Stick => work
= install the same to harddisk => work
= install the same to SD => installation worked => booting failedenter handle_19:
NULL
Booting from Hard Disk…
Booting from 0000:7c00PROBLEM SOLVED:
–----------------------
My problem was a bad formated SD-Card/USB stick.I used "HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool" for formating and Win32DiskImage to write the image to USB and then i had no probles with install on SD.

Did you go through the procedure (documented here https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=59555.msg406438#msg406438) to set the boot delay?
-
i did that…in fact it was working now with USB stick but not on an SD.
-
NanoBSD, 2g, amd64, 2.1.1 on a class 4 SD card worked fine for me on the APU I have. Nothing special aside from kern.cam.boot_delay.
(If you thought CF was slow, wait til you use an SD below a class 10… :-) )
-
am getting this on the physdiskwrite..same for ADATA and transcend 4Gb SD
3965190144 bytes writtenWrite error after 3965190144 bytes (8192).
-
Use a smaller image. Try the 2GB NanoBSD on the 4GB card. The card is probably too small to contain the full image. See many other topics for more info on how card makers do that and why.
-
still it goes to mountroot>
-
It will do that until/unless you do the kern.cam.boot_delay change as mentioned in many similar threads for the APU.
-
please find below running config; see the command as per advised…thx

Back to the main problem… F12 not working or USB image incorrect.
things done:
=install the memstick image to USB using physdiskwrite successful
=install the same on SD
=install SD and USB stick one at a time but failed
=at one point on the startup press F12 and select the proper drive but still failing to bootPls help as we know we have an issue on the supplied mSATA ssd
F12 is not functioning, it is not booting from the USB stick
...
Booting from Hard Disk...
Booting from 0000:7c00I tried:
- physdiskwrite
- HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool" for formating and Win32DiskImage to write the image to USB
-
Resolved.
Hyperterminal in Windows did not work.
Downloaded Putty and F12 was working. -
F12 is now working and providing the boot options
1. USB MSC Drive USB Flash…

it still sais
