      A file was lost before upgrading the system.  This time I will overwrite the file upload to the system under the "etc" directory

        Dude…

        1/ Get a GENUINE install image. Not some homebrew crap. Here: https://www.pfsense.org/download/

        2/ Do a FRESH CLEAN install. Do NOT upgrade. overwrite or otherwise hack the current clusterfuck.

            You did not have 2.4 and NanoBSD. I don't know what you did or what you had, but it could not have been 2.4 with NanoBSD.

            Just write the 2.4 install memstick img to a different USB stick and then install it on top of your existing USB stick (or even better – use a new one).

              I have try your way, but 2.4 install memstick img can't boot for install. only nanobsd can boot for install.

                  NanoBSD also does not "install". It runs in-place. There is no way currently to start with 2.3.x or before NanoBSD and get to 2.4.

                  We are working on an in-place upgrade to transform a NanoBSD install into a full install (assuming it's 64-bit) but it's still a work in progress.

                  If you can't boot to install from a USB memstick, there is probably a problem with your BIOS settings, or the hardware in general. Or you're using the wrong installer image.

                    NanoBSD can boot.  pfSense-CE-memstick-2.4.0-BETA-amd64-20170404-0741.img  cant boot for  install.

                      There is no 2.4 NanoBSD so that is not a valid comparison. Which NanoBSD image, specifically, can boot?

                      If 2.3.x boots but 2.4.x doesn't, it is most likely an issue with your BIOS or BIOS settings.

                      Perhaps boot a 2.3.3 installer, perform a full install, and then upgrade to 2.4 that way.
