      Hi there,

      I have installed pfSense 1.2 full on a embedded system it all works fine.

      I have add the package (Squid) so I can use it also as proxyserver.

      The problem is that the flash card is only 1 GB  so I want to add an external HD (USB) to store the cache and logs of Squid.

      I tried several commands to mount the disk but it comes back with: Incorrect superblock.

      I don’t now how to solve this problem.

      I hope someone can help me!

      Thanks

      Menz

        "Incorrect superblock" means that the hard disk is not partitioned/formatted properly for use with pfSense.
        You'll need to partition it (e.g. using the pfSense installer or a FreeBSD computer) and then try mounting it again.

        Software: pfSense 1.2.2-RELEASE
        Hardware: HP Workstation xw6000 (2x Xeon 2,8 GHz, 2GB RAM, 36 GB SCSI HDD)
        NICs: LAN: bge0, WAN: xl0, OPT1(WLAN): sis0
        Packages: squid, squidGuard
