17.1 Legacy Series / Re: OPNsense install from a USB key
« on: April 04, 2017, 11:13:30 pm »
For some time now I have been trying to install OPNSense from USB.
Today I tried again, hoping the issue is fixed. It seems not.
I can write any other distro to any of the 3 USB sticks I tried with, using any method: physdiskwrite, win32diskimage,Rufus, Yumi from Windows AND dd from my linux machine and they will boot without any problem.
Yet, OPNSense refuses to boot from any USB written using any method on any machine. (My PC, laptop or router box)
Now, either someone is trolling and wants new users off of OPNSense or ...nobody cares, despite numerous reports about USB sticks not booting with OPNSense img.
Just letting you know that you are loosing new users with this.
