      Hi there -

      Received this SG-3100 from a friend, did a factory reset via the rear button upon receipt. Currently stuck in a bootloop, from what I can see via USB console. I can only get to the Marvell prompt right now. Did a search for relevant posts, but none seemed to apply to this specific bootloop. I'll post what seems to be the issue below. I know this is TAC Lite, but in somewhat of a rush, need this for a project--really appreciate all of your help:)

      Thanks for your help!

        EDIT: Managed to solve this via Support. Needed to reinstall PFSense via the 'run recovery' command. Hit a snag with one of my USB drives, but the 'reset usb' command (x3) , as well as a different drive fixed the issue.

        Great, and super timely support from Netgate!
