Signal 6, random weird crashes - hardware problem. Either a defect of some sort or an incompatibility of your platform with the FreeBSD 13 kernel.Things to try:Reset BIOS settings to manufacturer defaults.BIOS update available?Power saving states - disable them all at first.Run memtest.Does some Linux distro run?Does a stock FreeBSD 13.3 run?HTH,Patrick
problem could be storage or another hardware like memory.Those errors and failure to login could suggest a broken installation, which in turn could be memory or storage.You could try running ubench or stress (these are freebsd packages) but I find those tend to just max out the hardware to a crash, so without understanding what is happening, it could lead to misdiagnostics.Run memtest from a usb stick first if you can.Try to validate the storage. You could do that from this vanilla freebd. Some heavy use of disk like large file transfers, etc.Look for clues in dmesg.
Logging into the console is impossible. Doesn't matter if I use a custom password or the stock opnsense on after a new install. Also created a new user with sh as login shell and added to admin group but no result. Done 2 installs now just to be sure.
It would be useful if not done yet, to run the checksums on the downloaded files. It checks not only that the images haven't been tampered with (unlikely but all serious projects do it to protect their users), but also checks for a corrupted download. Only takes a few minutes.
Additionally this:What happens, do you get a login prompt?
