Hello folks, first post, having alot of fun using unraid!

 

I am having issues deploying a pfsense vm.  I have successfully deployed W10 VMs to this unraid server (6.2.0-beta23 on 30 day trial).

 

When booting the newly created vm, the iso never seems to boot (goes to shell prompt).  I used the FreeBSD template to create the VM config.  Can anyone suggest what I might be doing wrong?  The same issue occurs when trying to boot a Sophos UTM vm using the Linux template.  All other VMs are turned off.

The problem was using ovmf rather than seabios, I wasn't paying attention to the advanced VM configuration.
