I liked my fit-PC3 so much that I now have purchased a fitlet xa-10-lan to replace my firewall. I have put 8GB Crucial memory and an mSATA SSD into it. However pfSense hangs before I can install the bits onto the SSD.
This is a 64-bit "Full" (not "Embedded") install of pfSense 2.3. And I am installing from usb stick, so the image is "Memstick Serial" in pfSense lingo.
I have connected only one of the ethernet ports (leaving the other 3 ports alone). I thought this might be a problem but according some anecdotes on the web it looks like pfsense supports installation with one port connected.
The last three lines on the console look like below -
After this the fitlet just hangs. I have tried turning on the verbose mode but did not gain any additional insight about my issue. So I have 2 questions -Timecounter "TSC" frequency 1197778281 Hz quality 1000

1. Any ideas about what might be going wrong ?
2. Any of you are running or have run pfsense 2.3 on fitlet xa10 lan successfully ?
