Hi,

"Is it plugged in" questions are welcome, I'm probably missing something about 
that simple.  It's my first time with a soekris, and first time trying to boot pfsense 
off the memstick image.

The soekris was set to 19200.  I tried 9600 on it as well (boot, ctrl-P, set 
ConSpeed=9600, reboot) to no avail.  Also 115200.
The soekris or alix is either 19200 or 38400 stock, we are still using 
9600,n,8,1 for all our embedded builds.

If this is a memstick image you should not expect serial output iirc. Only the 
nanobsd images have serial, the nanobsd images with VGA even have VGA instead.

Maybe I've missed something, but I believe this is the case.
Correct, the stock memstick image is VGA only. It's not meant to be run
long-term, it's just an installer.

That explains a lot, thanks:)

If you're feeling lucky, I haven't heard back any input on this, but I
made a serial memstick the other day if you want to try. My Soekris is
currently in active duty so I can't easily pull it to try.

I will pull this and try.  So this is my 'is it plugged in' moment:

Can memsticks be used as the flash drive to run a pfsense instance on a soekris, or do I need to use that to install to another type of flash on the system?

Thanks,

--- David
