Hi,

>From what I read, you can use SSD/HDD in these things. So basically, you have 
>two ways which I think should work:

 - DD miniroot70.img to hdd, plug hdd in, boot from it, install to same hdd you 
booted from. You may need to create boot.conf in miniroot70.img to use serial 
instead of non-existent vga if "boot>" prompt does not show up to do that at 
boot time.
 - plug hdd to another computer, install openbsd to it, move hdd to watchguard.

The second way I found here: 
https://www.reddit.com/r/PFSENSE/comments/rce3i6/howto_pfsense_252_on_watchguard_xtm_5/

Let us know how it goes.
