Hi,I have a new net6501-50 where I tried to install pfsense 2.2.1 on (i386) via usb stick (memserial)
Booting from USB and installing on the Transcend mSATA SSD went fine (as far as I understand ). However pfsense is not booting from the msata.

It appears I face the same issue as desribed here:
https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=80.15 Unfortunately there is no solution.Can anyone help me on this ? The fact that I already can read F1 pfSense makes me believe at least some part of the data on the ssd is there and accessible. So it might be a FreeBSD thing but I don't know. What I tried is to install FreeBSD 10.1 as desribed here: http://www.macfreek.nl/memory/FreeBSD_9_on_Soekris_net6501 . This did work, meaning it did boot from the msata drive. I did not use the zfs approach as I believe pfsense is not using it.
Furthermore when I boot via a freebsd usb stick I can mount the pfsense partitions, I can also run gpart

Unfortunatley I don't know what I could do know as my freebsd knowledge
is limited. Can anyone give me some hints here ? Is it a MBR thing (if
that exist on FreeBSD at all)
Any help is appreciated. Marcel
