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

        I just tried latest, rename .img to iso - and it boots.. But yeah stuck here

        It just flips back and forth when you hit enter

        This is using
        pfSense-CE-iso-2.5.0-DEVELOPMENT-amd64-20210201-2350

        edit: just tried this one and doing the same thing
        pfSense-CE-iso-2.5.0-DEVELOPMENT-amd64-20210201-1628

          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.

                  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.

                        @jimp Do you get the same behavior with the memstick?

                        yes. i am using memstick, it still can't work.

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