      Hi gonzopancho,

      When you say we "are" pfsense and you have a special built to fully support the APU1C do you mean that you could have also a built supporting an APU1C including a 3G or 4G modem (miniPCIe slot) like the Sierra MC8801 or MC7304, LEDs working fine, Thermal sensors, reset button and so on ?

      Thanks

      Nicolas

        Hello,

        I don't understand and I am becoming crazy because on my side, following this same procedure, it simply doesn't work.

        I wrote the image pfSense-2.1.2-RELEASE-4g-amd64-nanobsd-20140410-0542.img to the SD card, booted the APU1c, interrupted the boot and typed the command set kern.cam.boot.delay=10000, but root mounting still fails :

          You need to set

          
          kern.cam.boot_delay=10000
          
          

          NOT
          kern.cam.boot.delay=10000

          We do what we must, because we can.

                Great, thanks.

                And here above :

                echo kern.cam.boot_delay=10000 >> /boot/loader.conf

                Save/Load from path: /boot/loader.conf

                .local is missing

                  I haven't bothered testing 3G/4G modems in the miniPCIe sockets.

                  But otherwise, yes.

                      I couldn't get the embedded version (pfSense-2.2.5-RELEASE-4g-amd64-nanobsd.img.gz) on a 4GB SD card to work on an apu1d either.

                      None of the variable tweaks suggested in various places, such as

                      set kern.cam.boot_delay=10000
                      set hw.ata.atapi_dma="1"
                      set hw.ata.ata_dma="1"
                      set hw.ata.wc="1"
                      
                      

                      had any effect.
                      I tried writing the card on an SD-USB adaptor (as /dev/sdX) and also a laptop with a native SD interface, where it showed up as /dev/mmcblk0. No difference.

                      In the end I wrote a live image on an USB stick and used that to boot, then install onto the same SD card. This went fine, and with /var and /tmp in RAM, writes to the SD card should be minimal, so not using the embedded version shouldn't be a problem, I assume.

                        Well, clearly the image got either miswritten, or your SD is too small for 4GB to fit on it. Try with 2GB one instead.
