Weird boot behaviour
-
Hi all!
I have working 2.3 install.
Decided to try out 2.4. When I boot from usb it is very slow. It takes like 5 minutes to get to pfsense menu…
Any idea?
Thanks. -

Your not trying a 32bit machine are you? (if that is even possible..)

Hi!
Anyone seen this before?
Btw I've updated to 2.4 via gui and all is good.
But I can't install it from usb stick…
Really like zfs but can't use it because of this... -
At that point it is all between your hardware/BIOS and the USB stick reading the kernel.
If it's a USB 3 stick and/or port, try a USB 2 stick/port. Or vice versa.

Ahhhh crap I tought so :(
So no ZFS for me then :) -
Anyone seen this before?
Yeah, I've seen that. The old installer had a bunch of hidden options to install the loader in a couple different ways, after some random messing one of the options fixed it. Then again, this was back in ~2.1 days. But yes, this is due to a shitty BIOS.

Well I said f**k it and waited… Then I started to wait.... A bit longer... Smoked and waited.... Swept the damn place and cleared some dust... Drank a coffee...
Installer popped up :)
But I forgot to backup my config.So I waited some more and some more dust was swept and more coffee drank :D
Now I`m on ZFS and my shitty BIOS is more than happy to boot it :)
