Show me. I need to see the exact command and any output. NO editing allowed. For both a burn that succeeds (that is, produces a bootable disk) and one that produces a non-booting OpenBSD disk from a file that matches the checksums. > I know what a bootable image usually looks like... but neither of those > I downloaded look right. Then maybe you would be so kind as to share that information with us? At this point you have offered only a slightly drawn-out version of "I can't get this to work and it's YOUR fault", with no information that could actually have helped in debugging just what went wrong, but generously padded with "I know best" tidbits like that bit I just quoted. The people who asked you the things you found ever-so-insulting really wanted to help. But you chose to yell at them instead of offering up the useful information they asked for, so you've probably blown your chances of getting any help here, at least for now. Much like any other mailing list populated by volunteers, come to think of it. -- Peter N. M.
