jschellevis I meant to mention as well that I would have bought hardware from your organization however I wasn't aware of it until recently.  We bought the ADI Engineering box a while ago with PF on it but after trying it out shelved it because of the lack of documentation and overkill for our needs.

I actually got a response from Netgate, here is what they said.  The unit I have only has eMMC hence the issue. 

Ok, the reason it stops at the mountroot> prompt is that it's trying to mount from da1.
Our guide assumes you are installing to the mSATA (ada0). When you are booting the install media it appears as da0 and the eMMC appears as da1. After installing when you remove the install media the eMMC becomes da0.

At the prompt type:
ufs:/dev/da0s1a

That will allow you to continue. When it has booted completely you will need to edit /etc/fstab to correct the location.

As I am not a Linux guru does this help to explain what is happening.  I understand the theory but still need to investigate what the fstab file should look like.

I tried it it with version 15.7.18 as well and step 12 does not happen.  This is the error I receive.

The hardware is the RCC-VE 2440 that originally shipped with a PF Sense image.  The bios was updated to the latest version as well.

Mounting from ufs:/dev/da1s1a failed with error 19.

Loader variables:
  vfs.root.mountfrom=ufs:/dev/da1s1a
  vfs.root.mountfrom.options=rw,noatime

Manual root filesystem specification:
  <fstype>:<device> [options]
      Mount <device> using filesystem <fstype>
      and with the specified (optional) option list.

    eg. ufs:/dev/da0s1a
        zfs:tank
        cd9660:/dev/acd0 ro
          (which is equivalent to: mount -t cd9660 -o ro /dev/acd0 /)

  ?               List valid disk boot devices
  .               Yield 1 second (for background tasks)
  <empty line>    Abort manual input

Does anyone know what the installation directions would be for the version 16.1.8, the directions from Netgate for 15.7.18 no longer work. 

Starting at step 12, there is never a prompt asking what shell to use.

After this in step 13 it is not possible to mount the disks read-write, it gives an error stating that Mounting Failed with Error 19.

I am not an expert by any means so any help or guidance would be appreciated.
