Title: Installation of Opnsense Minipc with Intel atom E3845 and quad core
Post by: sunilc on December 10, 2019, 04:16:28 PM
I am using a 4 Lan Minipc with Intel atom E3845 and quad core mini itx motherboard which support AES-NI with is running a latest version of Pfsense. I wanted to install Opnsense on this hardware. I have been trying to install OPNsense-19.7-OpenSSL-vga-amd64 on this hardware through USB booting. It is booting OK and installation starts but reaches a booting command and stops there.

Is there any compatible issue or any suggestions?

Boot USB is created using Rufus and DD option.

There was another user that posted here a few days ago with a similar issue. See this thread for a work around, it's related to a FreeBSD bug.

Yes the below procedure worked as mentioned earlier.

During installation when you see the boot options press space bar  stop counter and select 3 to set boot options
Then type following

set kern.vty=sc
boot

After boot command, system boot  normal and passes the point where it gets stuck.


Thanks to all. benibilme also.
