I can't seem to get pfsense working on my VEP1485. Here is what I have done so far:
1. updated the bios/firmware successfully
2. installed pfsense on 256GB sata disk (no errors)
3. changed boot priority to the pfsense install disk ( tried both UEFI and the one just shows pfsense)
4. After this, I cant access the pfsense gui on the lan ip address I assigned during setup ( 192.168.10.1). I configured my laptop to be on the same subnet and manually assigned it 192.168.10.100. Looks like there is no network activity because I cant ping the pfsense lan ip or get dhcp to automatically assign an ip to my laptop if i remove the manual setup.
After the pfsense install completes, it ends up at this screen and simply sits there until I reboot the machine:
If I reboot, I always end up here ....
I can get into diag-os prompt ok.
Not sure where to go from here.
Edit: Problem solved. Turns out was using the wrong pfsense installer. I got it from pfsense own website ( memstick option ). That doesn't work on this ( at least on mine). There is a
serial version of the installer not listed on the site. Used that and made sure in the install options of pfsense, I select GPT / UEFI + Bios partitioning. All set.
