      Those are several days old, and from last month. Try the most recent one, which as of this post is https://snapshots.pfsense.org/amd64/pfSense_master/installer/pfSense-CE-iso-2.5.0-DEVELOPMENT-amd64-20210201-2350.img.gz

        @jimp Ok, but that's not an ISO. I was installing to an ESXi, it's a few more hoops to jump through to install an img... But I'll give it a go.

          It has "iso" in the name, though, so it should still be usable as an iso if you rename it.

            This is using

              Hi,

              I'm having the same problem.
              I'm using pfSense-CE-2.5.0-DEVELOPMENT-amd64-latest.iso

                I opened an issue to track the problem at https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/11361

                For those who can reproduce it, is it limited to just the ISO? Do you get the same behavior with the memstick?

                  Hi,

                  I didn't do tests with the memstick, only with ISO.

                  Thanks.

                    same here, stuck on install

                    /etc/rc.local: bsdinstall: not found

                    i'm using this link for the iso
                    https://snapshots.pfsense.org/amd64/pfSense_master/installer/pfSense-CE-2.5.0-DEVELOPMENT-amd64-latest.iso.gz
                    and it's only 175MB

                      Never use the "-latest" link, you have no idea what you are fetching.

                      Also see above, the filename changed (though perhaps not intentionally, we're still working on it), so that link hasn't worked in a few days.

                        I understand. But I only tried to use this file because the correctly named (...) DEVELOPMENT-amd64 - (...).iso didn't work either.

                              Can confirm this is fixed. Just ran the 5th Feb 2021 ISO and it works.
                              Thanks for the quick fix!
