Hmm, well that doesn't look happy. As I said I don't have an APU but I know there were some issues with the mSATA modules originally being supplied by PCengines. ESF/Netgate stopped using them because of this. What mSATA do you have?
There appears to be no obvious cause or workaround for this particular error.Steve

well it works straight away during fresh install of 2.2…it si the msata16c (Phison)...the latest version of their msata...maybe it needs formatting before installing...i want to try that but i dont know how...
-
Ok, so what are you installing, full or Nano? Which image are you using exactly?
The msata16c listed by PCEngines doesn't appear to say 'Phison' on it. :-
Edit: The part number could be one of theirs though.Steve

i dont know the boot order of the APU…in case it will prioritize the msata, how can i change that to USB?
The boot order can be changed, and saved during bootup of the APU. You need serial console though… press 12 immediately when booting.
maybe it needs formatting before installing…i want to try that but i dont know how
Easiest way it to make it boot a live install (install pfSense image on usb stick, boot from that). During pfSense boot, you have options for creating partitions manually, not 100% sure but I would think you can delete them there as well.
Note here: I encountered quite some challenges when manually fiddling with the partitions on a mSata. It was on the other hand very easy to install pfSense if I just let the installer take care of that part… And yes it deletes existing partitions if you take the easy way. -
=nano install amd64 4g
=msata16c is phison…counterchecked it with another board with vga..it shows on the boot order -
Just a relabelled drive then.
When 2.1.4 was first released there were some images the weren't correctly labelled, nano+vga labelled as nano. That has been fixed but if you downloaded your image a while ago you may have a bad one. Seems unlikely though.Steve

iam facing the same issue with fresh install on a msata16c
same procedures works on a msata16b
