      Sorry missed this actual forum…

      When I reboot the pfSense box, I have to select the second option which is the ACPI off setting everytime.  How can I have this default after every reboot?  Thanks.

        Search 4 ACPI

        Top result = HOWTO disable acpi

        Answer

        To alleviate the problem, I added the following line to /boot/device.hints at the very bottom:
        hint.acpi.0.disabled="1"

        And, After trying to boot his 1.0.1 box with ACPI disabled (via the FreeBSD boot menu), it came up in under a minute. To semi-permanently disable ACPI, they should make the same change mentioned above. Modify /boot/device.hints, and add this entry at the very bottom:
        hint.acpi.0.disabled="1"
