[FIXED] Use Ramdisk
-
I have to say, this dialog box is quite confusing. I have made no changes to the firewall regarding the ramdisk and this dialog box pops up. I would think either:
A) only pop up after a change
B) reworded to not confuse the end user as the OK reboots immediately regardless of ramdisk change, cancel bypasses the reboot.
 -
I too have wondered about this. I , made a change to the crypto module under advance -> miscellaneous and got the same message. Didn't really want to restart my firewall at that time but I didn't want the changes I made to not be saved so I restarted the firewall.
-
There was a fix put in for that in 2.4.3
Try using the system patches package to apply the changes from the PR and see if it helps: https://patch-diff.githubusercontent.com/raw/pfsense/pfsense/pull/3776.diff

Probably should have mentioned, I am on the latest dev release and the issue still persisits.
When testing the patch, I am getting the below error.

Set the path strip level to 2
-
Same window appears when "saving" a change as above with the patch applied. No changes made to ramdisk.
-
I'm still having issues with this dialog displaying. Now on the latest nightly, the dialog box appears as soon as you go to the miscellaneous tab.
-
The ramdisk pop-up seems to have been caused by PR 3776. The issue should be corrected in the next snap
-
With the newest snapshot 2.4.3-DEVELOPMENT (amd64) built on Wed Jan 10 20:07:40 CST 2018 FreeBSD 11.1-RELEASE-p6, the issue has been fixed.
THANKS!!
