Kernel Panics on Intel Apollo Lake Processors

That is probably fine. Speedstep can only set the P-states all the same anyway so it only really needs to use core 0. Speedshift can set each core individually and does so at much faster rates. But your CPU doesn't support it so not a problem.
-
Oh ok then it makes sense for speedshift to not get attached at boot
Well for now it seems that the only solution is to just keep monitor mwait off on the BIOS side and only let the cores enter at most a C1 state cause anything more than C1 is extremely unstable, it would be nice to see that fixed tough, also it might have to do with the fact the freebsd 14 is still in a fairly early beta stage and might have issues

Some times i wish that a 1100 was enough but with a 1Gbps internet connection it won't do and the 2100 is way over budget and an overkill for a home user. Also where i live, they resell the 1100 for 500 euro for a 190 euro device :P

Today: 1 dollar = 0,93 €
$189 = 174 €Netgate SG1100 for around ~249 € plus shipping fee
Netgate SG2100 for around ~449 € plus shipping fee -
Yeah see those are prices from a german reseller, the official reseller where i live sells the 1100 for 500 euros :P And i am not sure even if i ordered it from another country i would probably get import charges on top of whatever the price is and who knows how much those would be
Nonetheless the SG1100 is not enough for a gigabit internet connection and the 2100 is out of my budget this is why i went for the ZimaBoard which supposedly supported pfSense they even have it on their website although it has caused me nothing but issues since i installed it.. First the NICs which as i mentioned before i was expecting some issues but my general concensus was that dissabling HW checksum offload would fix most of em but for me it was straight up kernel panics every like 20-30 mins
Then i fixed that by manually adding the realtek kmod driver and now i have the cpu sleep state issues

My old box was working like a charm but since it was a thin client pc it only had one integrated nic and i had to use a usb 3.0 to Gbe adapter as my second NIC which was bottlenecking my connection to around 350Mbps since i upgraded to Gbps so i had to change it
Now don't get me wrong the ZimaBoard is a pretty nice SBC and very capable but in the current state of things it is not the best option for someone that intends to use it as a home firewall appliance, the only thing that i was able to run hassle free was Sophos XG Home which is extremely heavy for the cpu and has also a 6GB RAM limit if you don't buy a licence which makes the other 2 on my board useless plus all my experience and setup knowledge was always on pfSense

Hello again, i can now confirm that i did not have any kernel panics since my last post
I did not do anything in particular i have just switched back the max C state to C1 and i kept the microcode update process enabled in the loader.conf
I have now just updated to the 23.05 Release and lets hope it will continue to be stable :P
-
Also, how come that 23.05 is in "RELEASE" but it still shows up as the "next stable release" and not the "current stable release" in the updates menu?

It was quick changed for a moment to Release and then
it was switched back, but the image is the same as it
was confirmed by @stephenw10 in another thread. -
You should see the release as current stable now.
