      Hello everyone,
      I've just bought mini PC from Gigabyte: EL-20 3710, and
      I can't see the eMMC while installing pfsense (event with recent snapshot). Any suggestion, please?

      I try disable secure boot, select the Legacy 64bit and it doesn't help :(

      Please help me!

        How does the eMMC appear? If you boot into Linux for example what type of device is it?

        If it's an SD type device there are issues with the FreeBSD driver that might be the cause here.

          Thank you for your reply,

          On Ubuntu linux, it's: /dev/mmcblk0

            Hmm, are you able to get the boot log from the pfSense install image? Via serial perhaps?

              Same issue here!! I have a ECS LIVA Z https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16883105009&cm_re=ecs_liva--83-105-009--Product with 32GB emmc and I've tried installing the nand installer on it as I read in some article by booting Ubuntu live cd from one usb stick and from the other usb stick (with nand pfsense install) used dd to copy image from sencond usb stick to emmc but it doen't boot. Goes straight to bios….

              In Ubuntu emmc shows as /dev/mmcblk0 ... or something like this ( as the post above).

              I just tried to install pfsense 2.4 with usb installer but same issue. NO EMMC detected!

              What's the solution for this? And if you have one please show the steps. I'm not too advanced with pfsense...
