I got an old VA Linux 1000 box and I'd like to use it as a firewall box running
pfSense, however it hangs when trying to boot off the cd. It is able to
recognize the cdrom drive and seems to mount the filesystem but the system
hangs.
The last few lines of text from verbose mode:
GEOM_LABEL: Label for provider acd0 is iso9660/pfSense.
Trying to mount root from cd9660:/dev/iso9660/pfSense
cd9660: RockRidge Extension
start_init: trying /sbin/init
Anyone have any ideas? I have tried 1.0.1 and the 12-23-2006 snapshot and
neither of them work. However, I have tried m0n0wall 1.22 and 1.3b2 and those
both work fine. m0n0wall 1.3b2 is based on FreeBSD 6.2 so I had hoped that the
12-23 snapshot would work but it does not. Is there anyone else running on a
VA Linux box or an IBM 4000R? (Apparently they're the same hardware) I've
looked through the forums/mailing list archives but so far nothing has worked.
