Mounting failed with error 19 during installation

I'm trying to install OPNsense (for the first time) on my Qotom box using USB. But no luck. This is the error I'm getting during the initial startup:
mountroot: waiting for device /dev/ufs/OPNsense_Install...
Mounting from ufs:/dev/ufs/OPNsense_Install failed with error 19.
etc. etc.
Picture of the output on my display:

Anything I can do to resolve this issue?

Managed to resolve this after two very frustrating nights. I think it was an issue related to an old MBR or broken GPT configuration.
Steps to resolve:
1. Connect an USB flash drive (to my Mac)
2. diskutil list (check who's who)
3. diskutil umount disk2s1 (unmount the flash drive -
in my case
disk2s1)
4. gzcat pfSense-CE-memstick-2.4.4-RELEASE-amd64.img.gz | sudo dd of=/dev/rdisk2 bs=1m (deploy the image)
5. Install pfSense on the Qotom box using the USB flash drive
Success. The hard disk drive is now OK and ready for OPNsense. Continuing:
6. Connect the USB drive to the Mac once again
7. diskutil list
8. diskutil umount disk2s1
9. sudo dd bs=1m if=OPNsense-18.7-OpenSSL-vga-amd64.img of=/dev/rdisk2
Et voilà.. I am now installing OPNsense!
