-
Ran install from memstick and when I inititated install and accepted defaults I got the following problem.

From memory 1+ year ago - I think thats related to AHCI - try turning it off in the bios.

Either old SSD or bad cabling could generate error message.
I have ACHI enabled and did not get error message.

I am using a Samsung 850 Pro. Yes I had to disable AHCI and use IDE instead. Also had to use a USB 2.0 port rather than a USB 3.0 port for the memstick.
The motherboard is brand-new so I may possibly have to upgrade the bios?
With AHCI disabled it is working but not sure if that can potential he have a negative affect down the road.

I just checked on a new A1SRM Im building with a SATA-DOM and had to disable AHCI too still.

High up the mbuf size to 1.000.000 might be not really urgent but could solve any problems with the
LAN Ports, but mostly more RAM should be installed to realize it. 8 GB is powerful and really nice to realize
this tweak.And how is this done?

Delay command seems unnecessary.

Odd as that was already in the file when I loaded it. Must be a default.

Yes, exactly, all custom tunings should be entered by you inside of this file, to survive the next
update or upgrade because then all files will be new written or over written.Delay command seems unnecessary.
Cold be insertedby default or pending on other hardware, that must be recognized by the OS
at boot time, so if you have some USB gear connected to the entire pfSense box and it will be
not really recognized and enabled, this could be a really gain to give pfSense enough time to
locate and found them to load the right driver for it.Odd as that was already in the file when I loaded it. Must be a default.
Yes again.
