Nokia IP380 Installation Troubles
-
I am installing pfsense 1.2 from the live cd to a usb hard drive on another system, and then putting it into the IP380. Everything boots fine on the IP380 until just after I see the FreeBSD menu. The last line that I can see ends with the words "pfSense_wrap.6" then the screen flashes some text (too fast to see)and then the system reboots. This happens constantly. I have tried the default and embedded kernels, and the issue exists using both. Any help is greatly appreciated!

*** UPDATE ***
I was able to log my console session and the text that shows up between the "pfSense_wrap.6" and just before reboot is simply "T"
Again, any help is GREATLY appreciated!

*** UPDATE ***
I've ordered a new 20GB Seagate Drive and an IDE to MiniIDE adapter, so that I can rule out the hard drive and USB as issues. I will post updates once I have them (Monday/Tuesday night).
Again, any thoughts, suggestions, comments will be greatly appreciated.

If I am not mistaken, the IP380 has the same issues the IP350 has when trying to get pfsense loaded on it as it is not supported. I tried many times earlier this year to get it work (I have two IP350's), and it always hangs in the same spot as you mention. Nokia uses a customized version of FreeBSD (I believe) to make it run on their hardware. Trying to run m0n0wall doesn't work either.
The only thing I have not tried is FreeBSD 7.0, so that is something I would mention for you to give a shot if you have the time.
Good luck!

Damm, thats bad news. I was trying to load pfsense last night on the hdd of my ip350 and had the same error message 'pfSense_wrap.6' and went to bed. Was going to retry this today.
Have anyone trying jigging around the bios and see if there's a workaround?

Hello.. Sorry to pull up an old thread but I was wondering if this issue still exists IP380's? Also is there any way to get the NON embedded version on the IP530's?
Thanks,
Matt
