        If you were using pfSense on a bare-metal device, you wouldn't see any issues.

        @bahman said in error occur under startup:

        qemu

        So this concerns "VM" or "Virtualisation" => see here Home > pfSense® Software > Virtualization
        as this is not an installation problem, pfSEnse or the software that boots / installs pfSense doesn't get even the chance to start.
        The messages shown are from the VM host.

        I tend to say : a qemu problem.

        No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
        Edit : and where are the logs ??
