      @cmb:

      The full version is installed from the Live CD. You need:
      http://pfsense.untouchable.net/downloads/pfSense-1.2-RC2-LiveCD-Installer.iso.gz

      The steps so far:
        - download the LiveCD installer
        - extract and burn the iso to a CD
        - boot the CD
        - select your LAN and WAN interfaces
        - browse to the web interface on http://192.168.1.1

      Now we need to steps to find and configure squid.

        After you took your steps you're running purely out of your RAM and from the CD.
        You need to install it on a harddisk!
        (option 99 from console)

        We do what we must, because we can.

          1. Install the full version of pfSense to disk
          2. Reboot
          3. Select System -> Packages
          4. Click on the + to the right of Squid

          If and how you configure it will depend entirely on what you want it to do beyond the default.
