Hi,
I have been using pfsense running off of a CF and also hard disks for some
time now but this is the first time that I attempted to install it on a
Soekris net5501-70 with a SATA hard disk.
The Soekris POSTs fine (below) and I am able to load pxeboot from a a tftp
server using "boot f0." I get five lines - something like ("-- " prepended
for clarity):
-- __E Loader 1.00
--
-- __ilding the boot loader arguments
-- __locating the loader and the BTX
-- __arting the BTX loader
After that the terminal emulator goes haywire and I suspect a communications
parameter mismatch. The cursor is all over the page and keeps garbling the
first two characters of random lines (hence the underscores). I wonder if
someone could point me in the direction of some documentation, etc. (I
looked through the pfsense forums, mailing lists, etc. without any success).
Any help will be most appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
--george
