Hi,
http://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/NanoBSD_on_WRAP
Has someone done the first step what would be kind enough to put the
resulting image available for download? I worked a few hours on this before
discovering that article, and I don't have much time to setup a separate
freebsd/pfsense box to do the changes.
If we where to do this then nobody would read the page and they would
then complain later down the road when they finally learn the
limitations of the image.
People will complain no matter what, even when the cause is a hardware
bug outside our control. I plan on eventually uploading an image ready
to write, for download on the above linked page, after the text
showing the warnings. No sense in making all WRAP users jump through
the same hoops. Eventually being whenever I have time, which won't be
this week.
I tried to write a decent reply to Scott a couple of times, and I
decided not to answer because I felt he could get upset with my answer
(and it wasn't my goal), maybe because my English is not good enough, or
maybe there wasn't a way.
I like this answer, and there are really 2 facts that are highlighted here:
- Users will always complain
- The better your product and product history, the less users will read
the warnings. PfSense has always had a good record to me, so I don't
read the upgrade document at each upgrade.
I'll wait for the image, Chris, and I don't mind the few weeks of wait,
but I think that maybe uploading a (or a set of) README files on the
mirror would help... I would personnally be very tempted to read a
README file while it is downloading, especially if it has "WRAP" in its
name.
BTW, I just found out that the PfSense Book is available on Amazon, I'll
order one very soon !
Regards,
Ugo
