Contivity 100 and pfSense 1.2.2

This is my little experience with pfSense 1.2.2…

Today I’m fixing my firewall. It was running with 4GB HDD and full install of pfSense 1.2.0. I’m fixing it because I have experimented problems with the HDD. It was running great years ago, but now it’s past.

So… What I need to do before to remove the HDD and power off the Contivity 100?
- Extract the full configuration. Don’t forget to enable serial console.
- Backup other files, because I installed extra packages.

What problems I experimented with the new installation?
- When it’s booting with DMA support.
For to resolve the problem:

echo hw.ata.ata_dma=\”0\” >> /boot/loader.conf

- When I turn off directly.
Replace in /etc/rc

/sbin/mount -a

for

/sbin/mount -a || /sbin/fsck -y && /sbin/mount -a || /sbin/fsck -y
