Chris,

So I got the firewall installed on the hard drive, inserted into the Soekris
board and I'm able to see the boot up from the serial console.  I thought
everything was good but then it got to the mount part and was not able to
mount root (Trying to mount root from ufs:/dev/ad4s1a).  I had to manually
enter in ufs:ad1s1a (Note, it's ad1, not ad4) to get it to boot.  It seems
it's trying to mount root from the wrong place and I must manually enter in
the mount command to get it to go.  Once I do that it boots up fine and the
firewall works.  How do I get the firewall to automatically mount the
correct drive?

Yes to both, USB adapters work fine for install and operation, and 
you'll need to run the installer off the live CD (option 99).
