Netgate SG-2440 hangs at "booting..." (v18.1.6 amd64 nano)

[vocatus]

I installed v18.1.6 amd 64 nano to an SG-2440.

The problem is that it hangs at "booting..." after a lot of text scrolls by (once it gets past the menu)

What should I do?

Cool everyone, thanks for the replies.

Here's the solution in case anyone else ever stumbles across this:


At the OPNsense boot screen, escape to loader prompt (option 3), and type the following VERY CAREFULLY (the screen will be jumbled and characters will appear 2 or 3 times in a row, just ignore screen output and type exactly as follows):

Code: [Select]

set hint.uart.0.flags=0x0
set hint.uart.1.flags=0x10
set comconsole_speed=115200
set comconsole_port=0x2F8
set console=comconsole
boot

once booted to live environment and logged in (default root/opnsense) run installer:

Code: [Select]

/usr/local/etc/rc.installer
