      I'm having issues booting the 2.6.0 installer directly from the 2.6.0 .iso (confirmed it's not corrupt)

      The issue seems to affect Windows Server 2016 but isn't present on a Windows11 Hyper-V install. All VM's are created identically, Gen2 and without secure boot. If I use Gen1 it works on Server 2016 (Not an issue I have with 2.4.5 etc)

      I'm struggling to view the text when it fails due to the vm rebooting every time.

      If I install using Windows11 and then transfer the VHD to Server 2016 and run it hangs at this point and then reboots in a loop shortly after showing this screen

      and from a fresh boot of the CD I get this

        I'm still having this same issue, we're unable to boot 2.6 installer and even boot a pre-installed 2.6 from a VHDX that we've used Windows11 to install and copy across.

        Just checking in to see if anyone else has had this issue with Hyper-V 2016 and the new ZFS based versions of pfSense?
