      I've installed pfSense 4 times tonight after reformatting my hard drive. Everything loads up fine before install and during install. The troubles start at 'Reboot". When exactly do I remove the CD. According to the instructions it say remove the CD in the computers shutdown state and press enter to restart. My computer doesn't shutdown, instead it quickly reboots and by the time the CD has ejected it has already tried reloading from the CD. At this point, I must use the ctrl, alt, delete command to restart and each time I'm getting the 'Boot Error" message. This is getting very frustrating. I could use a little help. I'm trying to install on a Compaq Deskpro EN with a 1 ghz PIII processor. I have 256 mb of ram installed and 3 nics. 1 on-board nic and 2 PCI. Thanks in advance for any help.
