      I am using the pfsense CD installer and wanna install the pfsense to the HDD

      During the installation,I get the error code of 1(see the Attach)

      I tried Pfsense RC1 ,RC2 (snapshot) and get same issue

      I'm using:
      HDD:Seagate 250GB HDD (SATA2),
      MB:minix H61m-USB3 with dual onboard broadcom Lan
      RAM:2GB DDR-3
      DVD-ROM :SONY DVD-RW (SATA)

      In the BIOS,i have to change the HDD mode to ACHI mode.

      How can I fix it??
      have any possible solutions? ???

      Thanks!

        I've seen similar issues when there was existing data on the HDD. That isn't normally a problem but can have issues in certain cases.

        Have you tried writing zeroes to the whole drive and then attempting the install again?
