      I'm using: pfSense-1.2.3-RELEASE-LiveCD-Installer
      The hardware is an older "Rackable Systems" rack mount server

      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:
      Enter full pathname of shell or RETURN for /bin/sh:

      Is this an unsolvable hardware issue? What do you recommend as my next troubleshooting step?

      Thanks in advance.
