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
