Why don´t the cdrom images boot?

[gh0st]

Hi all!

Have downloaded the OPNsense-16.7-OpenSSL-cdrom-amd64.iso.bz2 and unpacked it. Right now I have losed about 5 DVD+r discs because it refuse to boot on my server.

Downloading the VGA image ATM and are going to test that one! But the image above is a non working for me.

Now I have tested alot of solution, and none of the images are working.

Have tried burning them with ImgBurn and Nero Express on Windows 8.1 with no luck.
Have tried burning them with Finder in macOS Sierra with no luck!

Have tried it with Rufus only to end up with the bug everyone else is facing!

Now, I´m going to try the latest 17.1.r1 to see if it ends up with the same as the rest. :/

I haven't used the ISO files to burn to CDROM/DVDROM, but been using them with VM's.
Never a problem booting them.

What hardware are you using? What exactly goes wrong?
All you're saying it "it doesn't work"...

They refuse to boot from external USB BluRay-player, but when I put in an internal DVD-player they booted fine...

But Rufus f*cked the USB memstick up with both 16.7 and 17.1!
