        You have to uncompress the iso.gz file first.

                If you are using 2.1.5, it is quite old and is lacking some virtualization support.  Perhaps you could try the upcoming 2.2 version which is currently at Release Candidate status.

                http://snapshots.pfsense.org/

                I'm a VMware/Virtualbox guy and have no experience with Proxmox, sorry.

                  what should be used 32bit or 64bit?
                  and @kom if you use also virtualisation how large is your disk and how much RAM you use?

                  have a nice day
                  vinc

                  and yes it is pfSense-LiveCD-2.1.5-RELEASE-amd64-20140825-0744

                      thanks so far, it seems im to stupid to set up.
                      in the boot/setup prozess he ask for lan wan port and can't find them because they are virtuelle.
                      i would hope he just go plane trough and gives me a ip adress to access but nothing

                      :-\

                        That's because 2.1.x has limited support for virtual devices.  I did say that you should try the 2.2. Release Candidate which has much better virtual support.  Either that or configure your VM to use Intel E1000 driver.  Use Google to search for 'pfsense proxmox network|NIC| card|adapter'
