      I followed the instructions to get "firmware access" installation image to try to fix the EFI partition problem, submitting a ticket as instructed (https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/solutions/sg-1100/reinstall-pfsense.html). That was a couple days ago. I kinda expected an email with a link to the support ticket saying "your image is ready."

      How long does this take?

        @deemery Usually they send it in 15 minutes or so, regardless of time of day that I've tried. I cannot remember if I got an immediate ticket creation email first, or not. I would submit again, check your spam filter, etc.

        Only install packages for your version, or risk breaking it. If yours is older, select it in System/Update/Update Settings.
        When upgrading, let it finish; do not reboot early. Allow 10-15 minutes, or more depending on packages and device speed.
