This is a really strange behaviour, I wonder if anyone has seen anything
similar.
I've just been trying to replicate a production config in a VirtualBox
VM (vbox 4.3.6, OSX 10.9.1).
I can install pfsense fine, and manually set up a LAN IP address on
vboxnet0 so that I can get into the web and use Diagnostics >
Backup/Restore to upload an existing XML config. But then the VM refuses
to boot properly. It only gets as far as:
F1 pfSense
F6 PXE
Boot: F1
|
and then hangs at that point (vertical bar, not spinning). This is
repeatable if I reinstall and re-restore the same XML config.
I was able to workaround the problem by reinstalling, using scp to copy
/cf/conf/config.xml directly from another machine, and then reboot. So
it's not a show stopper, but it's most bizarre - how can a *config*
upload prevent the kernel from booting??
Any thoughts welcome :-)
Regards,
Brian.
