19.1 Legacy Series / [Solved] Opnsense 19.1 on Pc Engine APU4C4 fails on mSata but works on SD card
« on: February 26, 2019, 03:04:03 am »
I am trying to install Opnsense 19.1 on my Pc Engine APU but it failed while copying the file on the 60GB mSATA drive.
At first I thought the mSATA was bad - I had issues with pfSense too last year - and replaced it with a newer 120GB SanDisk today. Same result.
Here's the error I get:

Strangely, when I switch to a SD card instead of a mSATA, the installation completes and I can configure and do everything with the firewall and it works like a charm.
But I would prefer to use the mSATA.
Can anyone help?
Thx
