      It is sad to see PF going to crap since Natgate took over. The last two PF 2.7 are nothing less than garbage. 2.7.0 kept crashing with CAM errors all over the palce.
      Upgrading from 2.6 to 2.7 left my system totally unbootable forcing to perform a clean install. If it is not for my backup, the installation would being lengthy. Now the same happened upgrading from 2.7.0 to 2.7.2. Going straight into GRUB with error:
      Command line arguements: loader.efi
      Image base: 0xa82dc000
      EFI version: 2.40
      EFI Firmware: American Megatrends (rev 5.11)

      ERROR: /boot/lua/loader.lua:1: unexpected symbol.

      TYPE '?' for a list of commands, 'help' for more detailed help.
      OK _

      Here goes another full installation from scratch. It seems pfsense is going to crap and loosing trust. Perhaps Netgate need new programmers or at least a better QA/Testing team. Three releases with this type of errors; it is like novices are coding PF.|-left aligned paragraph
