      I have a brand new HPCompaq p4 computer with 512 of ram. I am trying to load Pfsense on the new computer. I put the Live cd in the cdrom, and Everything is coming up. I hit 99 to load the onto the harddrive. I reboot the computer and the boot loader come up. After the boot loader the computer starts a loop. I have to turn off the computer. I cannot get the computer to boot up the firewall.

        Try installing with and without the "packet mode" option (this option is setable during the hdd install process).
