[solved] Intel I350-T4 gives boot problem
-
After I installed the Intel I350-T4 in my system running pfSense 2.2.1, pfSense won't boot.
Attached the error page.I see a EEPROM checksum error and a Trap 12 error.
Anyone an idea?

I've come across that EEPROM problem before under Linux. It will usually go away if you plug an active cable into ALL 4 ports before powering on the machine, or disabling all PCI-E power management in your BIOS.

Thank you for your reply. Will check it and report back.

All 4 cables connected to the switch and server powered on. -

start reading thread with exact same situation here: https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=91294.msg509645#msg509645
So I ditched the old card and replaced it with a "Intel I350-T4 PCI-Express", but I'm having even more trouble with this card. It causes a fatal trap 12, EEPROM is not valid. And wont boot :(
it was fixed by updating the firmware of the intel card … see a couple of posts further down

Thank you so much, indeed seems exactly the same. Will try it tomorrow and will report back.

Updating firmware did solve the problem!
Very happy now :D
