      FreeBSD has pulled the 8.1 release binaries, not something we can fix for you. Alternatively, if you find a FreeBSD mirror that still has them you can install them that way via pkg_add -r

        They are hiding out in ftp-archive.

          OK. I am a bit confused.

          I want to install the IPv6 pfSense. The only way I knew was to install 2.0 and then run playback gitsync.

          Is there are new IPv6 snapshot that can be installed directly? If not then why the changes with the procedure.

            We didn't change the procedure - FreeBSD moved the packages archive out from under where our builds look for it.

                The last images I made were before 2.0-RELEASE, and I haven't had a chance to make more with IPv6 built in.

                Using the 2.0-RELEASE image and then doing a gitsync is the best way to do it at this point.

                    You just have to add git before you run gitsync, as has been stated. Like so:

                    # pkg_add -r http://ftp-archive.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD-Archive/ports/amd64/packages-8.1-release/Latest/git.tbz
                    

                    Which is why I posted the new base URLs where FreeBSD moved the package.

                        Question(s)..
                        do I need to do the pkg_add step everytime I do a clean install of pfsense?

                        also after this step will the "gitsync" pickup the latest updates for IPv6 image?

                          Yes, on a clean install you must install git if you are planning to use the gitsync function to track the ipv6 code.

                            Would be a good idea to include this info in pfSense IPv6 install doc

                              It is already there, and was there before you posted this :-)
