Manual installation pfSense 2.5.2 on APU2 engine problem

fabiensch

Hello,

I have an appliance APU2.

Yesterday I wanted to update pfSense and then it did not boot.

So I made a bootable USB stick with the image pfSense-CE-memstick-serial-2.5.2-RELEASE-amd64.img and during the installation, just after selecting the disk on which to install pfSense, there is has a progress bar with "fetching distribution file" followed by "extract distribution file", and these steps never complete.

I have strange characters appearing over the progress and messages like "CAM Status: command timeout" or "Retrying command, 3 more tries remain" or "Timeout on slot 29 port 0" (see screenshot below).

Here is the full video where we see the steps I take to proceed with the installation and we see the problems that start around 2min36: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xCTBW3djp64

Is this a hardware problem or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks for your help

Best regards,
Fabien

I am not 100% shure but it seams that your SSD has a hardware problem ...
