HELP - 24.7 dvd iso file NOT accepted by Rufus or Etcher

[nero355]

This is how my OPNsense install goes :

- Grab my Laptop running a Linux distro.
- Open the OPNsense website in Firefox.
- Download the VGA image.
- Open Konsole/Your favorite Terminal.
- 'sudo su' so you can destroy disks !!
- Unpack the VGA image :

Code Select Expand

# bzip2 -d OPNsense-26.1-vga-amd64.img.bz2- Use DD to write the VGA image :

Code Select Expand

# dd if=OPNsense-26.1-vga-amd64.img of=/dev/sdb bs=4MiB status=progress
And then Safely Remove once done from the menu of your Desktop Environment which might tell you that it can't read the USB Stick anymore because it can't read the new filesystem :)

I use Ventoy for installing software from an .iso image, take a look at their website: https://www.ventoy.net/ - I've never had a problem with it.

Really sweet piece of software to have a bunch of UEFI Boot capable Live! ISO images available at any moment indeed !!!
