    Hello,

    Following a breakdown at OVH, my vm PfSense no longer starts.

    The following message is displayed before restarting in a loop:
    "boot mount waiting for: CAM"

    All my other machines work again (even another Pfsense.

    Can you help me.

        It could be configured to use the wrong primary console. That's the last messages you see on voth consoles before it switches to primary only.
