      Hi everybody,

      Is it possible to create a custom pfsense (version 2.4) img file with a custom config.xml?
      The purpose of this img is to quickly restoring pfsense after a fresh install.

      In the past, with nanobsd image file, we'd got a folder called "conf" and put the custom file in it by rename it to "config.xml"
      https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Modifying_Embedded

      Many thanks.

      Mikaël

      Best regards,

          Hi ptt,

          Thank you for your reply.

          I read the procedure from your link.

          If I understood, it requires two usb ports (one for install media and one for config file).
          Is it correct ?

          Many thanks.

          Best regards,

          Mikaël
