      Hello,

      I'm trying to install the latest pfsense version on xenserver 6.5, but the following error always occurs:

      Xenserver server: Dell R710
      http://www.dell.com/downloads/global/products/pedge/r710-spec-sheet.pdf

      Image error1:

      Image error2:

      EDIT1: I tried to do what is suggested in the link below, but without success.
      https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=41962.0

      EDIT2: I'm using the installation via ISO by adding ISO to xenserver DVD Drive 1.

      Any suggestion?

        I've tested on a xen 6.5 with 2.3.3 64bits. Boot to install options and install goes fine.

          Maybe a corrupt ISO. But This is strange because I uses the same ISO in another test installation with the virtualBox and install without any error.

          EDIT: chechsum of ISO.

          command to uncompress the .gz

          gzip -d pfSense...iso.gz

            MD5 of the ISO.

            7c3b6992e270d56802b65586b8a2188d  pfSense-CE-2.3.3-RELEASE-amd64.iso
            

            Can someone confirm the md5 for me?

              Well, I think I found the problem. I have a CIFS ISO Library mounted from our samba server to make ISOS available to our xenserver.

              I mounted a local ISO Storage on the xenserver and the installation happened normally. I configured it with an admin user and the permissions of the folder are ok. But either way, it's solved.

              (¹) What I do not understand is why other ISOs that are in this share, work in their respective installations and the pfsense ISO does not !? :D

              I'll investigate why it does not work in CIFS ISO Library!

              EDIT: Possible answer about question (¹)
              The pfSense ISO is packaged so as not to allow it to be transmitted at network installation time. (by JackL)
