Hi Matheus,

If i'm not mistaken you can use the web interface to write a proper
generated image to flash.

But if anything goes wrong you won't be able to debug without the console
access.

There are a few scripts to cross build these images (zrouter, adrian's
scripts) which you can start with.

For pfSense I'm not sure if we have enough RAM on wr1043.

I've a brand new WR1043 (never plugged in). If you want, contact me in
private and i can provide the help you need to solder the console header on
yours, or we can just exchange our units and i'll send mine with console
headers (and even with FreeBSD installed).

Luiz
