        Use a VGA Image for Installation? Seems you used a serial image?

        Don't forget to upvote 👍 those who kindly offered their time and brainpower to help you!

        If you're interested, I'm available to discuss details of German-speaking paid support (for companies) if needed.

          I am pretty sure it was VGA but for the sake of it I downloaded VGA. How do I do about installing it since keyboard is not responsive and it doesn't pull image from memstick. It is still stuck at booting

            Found the solution my firewall has atom CPU, and after upgrade it turns serial console.
            Solution explains in the end of https://www.netgate.com/docs/pfsense/install/upgrade-guide.html#upgrading-from-versions-older-than-pfsense-2-4-4
