      Hi,

      I bought this old device to become my new firewall. I downloaded the latest LiveCD and installed it. (32Bit
      It all went trough till the reboot question at the end successfully.
      On boot I do get the usual F1 pfSense F6 PXE Question, but then it reboots, I'm in a loop here.

      Tried it with 2.2, same.
      2.0 However worked fine :) but I can't update as its saying:
      Update cannot continue.  You can disable this check on the Updater Settings tab.

      Which i already did. Any help ? How can I update to the latest version now and will it work with my hardware ?

      Edit: I used https://updates.pfsense.org/_updaters as update URL and this seems to download the latest version now.
      Fingers crossed.

          for future reference: its always better to use the 64bit installer (if your hardware is capable)

            I might try 64Bit later today, wasn't too sure if the Pentium 4 already supports 64Bit, but I now saw this
