[coreboot] Re: Coreboot BIOS question

[David Hendricks]

Hello Aaron,
That error message appears to be coming from Pfsense. After searching
around a bit, it appears that the boot loop issue has occurred in multiple
models of Pfsense firewall appliances and is due to filesystem corruption.
The most common suggestion I see is to reboot into single user mode and run
`/sbin/fsck -y /` until you don't see any errors appear.

As for the cause, some people mention abrupt shutdown due to a power
outage. If the problem occurs multiple times then you might consider
swapping out the SSD.

Hi all,

I've requested to be unsubscribed several times but I'm still getting these
emails. Apologies for sending to the main coreboot email but the unsub
email seems unmonitored.

Please unsub me. Thanks.

[coreboot] Coreboot BIOS question

[SuperNova via coreboot]

Hello,

I am a new user of Coreboot who recently purchased a Protectli firewall with 
Coreboot pre-installed. The firewall is running PfSense that I installed on it. 
Everything was going ok for a few days until I started having issues with 
PfSense and now I am having problems getting PfSense to launch at all. I 
believe this is related to a hardware issue with the firewall. During the 
coreboot launch I am getting an infinite loop which is triggered at the 
following line:

cpu reset proxy stopped cpu 1

Sounds like an issue with the hardware to me. I believe I saw this same issue 
referencing cpu 2 as well. I have tried over a period of several weeks to boot 
up and I always get this message and then a loop back to the the coreboot 
initialization. At this point I cannot tell if this is a coreboot, pfsense, or 
hardware issue, and I am getting ready to just buy another firewall with 
pfsense already installed and I am hoping someone has the time to give me a 
brief idea of what might be going on here. I am fairly PC savy but am having 
difficulty drilling down to what might be driving this specific issue on the 
web. I do like your product and plan to purchase a PC with coreboot in the near 
future.

Thanks a lot for your time.
