Hello,
I'm in the installer and recovered my config file to a second USB drive (FAT32). The drive is /dev/da0p1, but the installer shows it as /dev/da0c. I can mount the partition and see /config/config.xml, yet the installer never prompts me to press a key at boot and the import fails.
Any suggestions?
Install OPNsense.
Import configuration.
Check for updates, after reboot check for updates again to retrieve all plugins. Reboot one last time.
IMHO the whole procedure with two USB Sticks of which one just holds the config.xml in a directory called /conf/ is just weird...
Why can't I just create that same directory on the USB Stick that holds the OPNsense installation and be done with it ?!
So yeah...
A fresh install and the assistance of the webGUI to restore everything is a lot easier and more convenient :)

My suggestion is to create the directory structure as /conf/config.xml as directed in the documentation. Yours is /config/config.xml assuming that's not a typo.
