      In 2.3 version, we can easy to install pfsense with GEOM mirror. However, we cannot find the GEOM mirror option in 2.4 when we use CD to install it. Please advise. Thank you very much

        This is a bit out of my experience but I do believe they moved to zfs and from there you can for sure create a mirror setup.

        @jimp would know more for sure.

          That is correct. 2.4 has a brand new installer and we would have had to re-implement gmirror installation all over again. Since the new installer has ZFS mirroring built in, that can be used instead.

            Thanks JimP for quick response.. I normally don't play with this stuff - but did recall a major change with the installer on 2.4..
