Feedback:
That's a big "Netgear, go fuck yourself" from my side.
First, not including these settings in the installation script for one of your netgate 2100 devices to mitigate "Error 19":
set kern.geom.raid.enable="0"
Second, in the installer, you have to be online for the installer to work, so it can download the right package. Are you fucking mental? I lost 4 hours, because I had to drive back and forth between the customer and my office. Can't you just give an option for a legacy install, so it's at least possible to configure PPPoE??
Third, DHCP doesn't work, I had to enter an IP
Now the installation is finished, and I'm on the way to my customer - again - having additional 1.5h time to spend configuring.
Noone will pay this shit.

Btw, I was on it about six hours.
And the reaseon for starting this whole thing was another error, the first of four: the firewall couldn't be up or downgraded, so I had to do a complete reinstall. At least, backup and restore went smooth.

The installer supports PPPoE. If you believe you've found a bug with DHCP, detailed steps to reproduce it would be helpful; you may also discuss it on the forum. I understand your frustration but this is not the place for it.
