Re: [pfSense] Making an install CD
I can't seem to make an install CD. I downloaded the ISO, unzipped it from the gz file using 7-ZIP, and burnt the disk image using win7. Those are the same tools I use to create bootable CDs/DVDs. Windows 7 can burn an iso without having to install any programs. I would have to guess something went wrong with the download, or with the mirror you used to d/l the file . Did you actually try booting the cd after burning it? Do you have the url for your download? I could test it... ___ List mailing list List@lists.pfsense.org https://lists.pfsense.org/mailman/listinfo/list
Re: [pfSense] Making an install CD
I did try a couple US mirrors, I don't know how to test the checksum on a file
or I would. Nothing complains about a corrupted file though.
But the CD ends up looking like 7-ZIP says the ISO looks like so I think I can
rule out the burner for now.
There aren't any files in the ISO except for those in directories and the
copyright file; I'm not sure how the boot process works but I don't think it
boots from a directory. The machines I have all say it's not a system disk.
Maybe you could download an ISO and see what's in it? I'm trying to get the
live CD with installer.Thanks for the help
When I reply to someone, how do I reply to the list?
