      Hi,
      I'm trying to deploy pfSense appliance by creating gen2 VM on Hyper-V and then uploading vhd into Azure.
      Created gen2 Azure VM uses custom storage account for boot diagnostics and serial console.

      There is a problem with boot, it freezes after bootloader. (works fine with gen1 VM)
      Sometimes it can boot after series of Reset-VM/NMI from serial console, works in 5-10% of cases.

      There is something related to serial console output in FreeBSD and Azure COM emulator at the early boot time.
      The issue is discussed in detail in the thread below.

      Is there any way that can be edited and fixed in pfSense?
