I want to install pfSense to the mini-ITX hard drive (SATA drive, not SSD) and use it as a standalone router re-downloaded the memstick i386 version then unzipped it onto my Ubuntu desktop folder.

I was able to use the same USB Flash drive to load and run Ubuntu 13.04 from their Live CD ISO just to make sure it could load and run Linux. It has a 40GB internal drive which is where I ultimately want to install pfSense to. The CPU is and Intel socket 370, version VIA C7 running at 1000MHz.

The PC I want to finally install pfSense on is a mini-ITX. Also, as I noted before, I was able to load and test pfSense on this PC using a Live CD disk but this is not an option for the other mini-ITX PC I want to load pfSense to since it does not have a CD drive. This was done on my test PC which is an old emachine with an AMD Athlon 64 Processor 3800+. It appeared to ignore the drive and proceeded to boot from the internal hard drive into Ubuntu.

I then restarted the PC with the USB drive plugged in. After running the 'dd' command I was unable to mount the USB drive from the terminal or gparted but I assumed this was a normal result of the data overwritten onto the drive. There where no errors generated so I assumed it ran correctly. I then opened terminal and umouted the device (4GB USB Flash stick) then ran the following 'dd' command.Дd if=/home/daf/Desktop/pfSense-memstick.img of=/dev/sdb1 bs=16k I re-downloaded the memstick i386 version then unzipped it onto my Ubuntu desktop folder. What is the make and model of your mini-ITX board? What do you want to install pfSense to (a USB stick, Compact Flash card, SSD, magnetic drive etc)? You might be able to attach that storage device to your Linux PC, install pfSense on the drive there then attempt to boot the drive on the troublesome PC.Дoes the PC you want to run pfSense successfully boot and run a Linux image on a USB stick? Unfortunately, this is not the machine I want to ultimately run it on. (I think it might be reported early in the system startup BEFORE FreeBSD gets control of the note, I was able to create a bootable LiveCD install disk with my mac and it could boot and run the pfSense installer on my test Linux machine. Please provide the complete text of what was on the screen (or a photo of the screen) so we can better determine at what stage in the boot this message appears. Please help it tries to boot from the USB drive it gets stuck at verifying DMI pool and never loads. Please note, I was able to create a bootable LiveCD install disk with my mac and it could boot and run the pfSense installer on my test Linux machine. The reason I need to be able to install from USB is that I just picked up a micro-ITX pc and it does not have a cd/dvd drive. I am just learning linux and don't have a Windows PC, only Ubuntu PC and Mac. I installed UNetbootin hoping that might work but it appears to only work with ISO files, not IMG files. I also tried to find a Linux app which can create a bootable USB but have found nothing which would work for IMG files. When it tries to boot from the USB drive it gets stuck at verifying DMI pool and never loads.

I've have tried running 'dd' command from the terminal to write the memstick (2.0.3 i386 release) image file to the drive from both my Linux Ubuntu PC and my Mac but none of them will boot my PC.
