      Hello

      I just installed pfSense-CE-2.3.4-RELEASE-4g-amd64-nanobsd on a msata 16GB SSD.
      With this command:```
      sudo dd if=pfSense-CE-2.3.4-RELEASE-4g-amd64-nanobsd.img of=/dev/disk3 bs=1m

      My apu2 with the ssd seems to boot fine. It makes some funny noise when it seems to be finsh with the boot-process.
**I don't have a serial-wire.**  :(
I thought I could connect with lan.
The RJ45 LED is on. But I can't connect to 192.168.1.1\. There is also no DHCP-Lease for my client.

      --- 192.168.1.1 ping statistics ---
      3 packets transmitted, 0 packets received, 100.0% packet loss

      Any ideas what's the problem? Is the installation not possible without the serialport-connection?

Thanks a lot and regards
