Description

Hello,

I set up in my xenserver a "Cifs ISO Library" to make ISOs available for installations. I downloaded the latest version of pfsense and tried in every way to create a VM from ISO, but without success. I created a topic in the forum to try to solve, but without success too. I was informed that this bug comes along with the base distribution of pfsense which is freebsd.

To recreate the problem simply create a new VM and select the pfsense ISO.

If it still doesn't work on 2.4, it will have to wait until FreeBSD fixes it upstream, and then we'll pick it up from them.

Ok. I tested the "pfSense-CE-2.4.0-BETA-amd64-latest.iso.gz" version and the same error occurs.
