to follow @bandiboo (thanks for your post) i have come up with the following 3 potential configs
to get pfSense installed on unraid 6.9.0-beta35 (and I assume other recent versions of unraid).
i440fx-5.1,OVMF, qcow, sata
q35-2.11,OVMF,qcow,sata
q35-4.0,OVMF,qcow,sata
all three of the above will at least allow you to make it through the install process as of 11/28/2020 I have not tested any further than the install (only to the first questions of if I want to configure vlans). These three configs avoid the issue I posted about previously on this video and do not require any of the other xml changes mentioned in the following links
Do also note: With all versions between q35-4.0 to the latest q35-5.1 i continuously received IRQ storms that made the install unworkable. If anyone finds away around this please share.
