      Hi,

      I'm trying to do a fresh install from bootable USB (install/amd64/usb memstick installer/serial) on a SG-4860 and this is what I get when I use Putty:

      Nothing is where it is supposed to be. It all end with the next pic.

      I'm to noob to have a clue as to what i'm doing wrong. Does anyone recognise this weird scrolling behavior ?

      Thanks in advance.

        Not sure if it would change anything, but tried making the putty window wider?

          No, I just ran with the window properties I found on the pfsense website.

              Yeah it can do some strange things since the terminal type doesn't match exactly. It installs fine regardless.

              FWIW I am having much better luck selecting vt100 in the new installer on 2.4 (in beta) using kermit on a mac..
