There was a problem hiding this comment. @pkubaj why don't you add this entry to our configuation of PXE server ? |
||
|
|
||
| The path `images/pfsense/boot/pxeboot` is relative to TFTP root directory. | ||
| It's a path to the PXE loader in the extracted PfSense installation image. | ||
|
|
||
| Unfortunately, there's no mechanism for unattended installation of PfSense. | ||

There was a problem hiding this comment. There's just no reference to unattended installation in the docs or in the official forum. It's possible though too install with Foreman. Also, OPNSense, which forked from PfSense, also doesn't support it.
