      Hello World :) ,

      im searching for a cheap hardware solution to install PFsense on it.
      I thought i can only install Pfsense on x86 Architecture. But i found the SG1100 on the Netgate Store, which has dual core ARM Cortex A53 processor @ 1.2GHz installed.
      How is this possible, that SG1100 can run PFsense on ARM Architectur?

        Because Netgate put a lot of time and money into making pfSense work on ARM. You can only get the ARM images by purchasing the corresponding Netgate device (like an SG-1100) and they only work on Netgate hardware.
