16.7 Legacy Series / Please explain different versions
« on: July 29, 2016, 02:32:32 pm »
Why are there so many different iso images for download?
Some of them are explained here
https://opnsense.org/users/get-started/
but not all of them. Please add explanations for each image to the download page, THANKS!
Also the fleximus.org mirror does not work, it just shows the same page when I click on one of the image files, nothing will be downloaded.
Just to explain it, the first experience with opnsense for any interested user is like this:

Just to explain it, the first experience with opnsense for any interested user is like this:
- oh, maybe intersting firewall product, let's test
- dig into why there are so many different versions
- learn, that the team does not explain it in the most obvious place (download page) - first annoy point
- learn that even in the getting started documentation it is not fully explained, second annoy point
- decide to download anyway just the first version listed
- go to fleximus mirror and experience that download does not work - third annoy point
- close tab, stay with old product, forget about it
