The hardware is an older "Rackable Systems" rack mount server</p>
<p dir="auto">What does it mean when I boot a system from a pfSense-1.2.3-RELEASE-LiveCD-Installer CD using verbose mode and I see things such as "FreeBSD check1 failed" and booting fails and I get a prompt which says:<br />
Enter full pathname of shell or RETURN for /bin/sh:</p>
<p dir="auto">Is this an unsolvable hardware issue? What do you recommend as my next troubleshooting step?</p>
<p dir="auto">Thanks in advance.</p>
