Dear Maintainer, New versions of ISO images (debian testing) are unbootable on Apple systems when written to USB. Previous were ok. Possibly because there is no Fat32 patrition like in Fedora ISO images. Previous versions had. All disk is ISO 9660. Best wishes, John
Hi John, Thanks for your report. Could you tell me more to help debug the problem please? What exact machine are you using? What's the first build you've seen problems with (the version should be in .disk/info)? Does it work with the latest stable (8.2.0)? Thanks!
Quoting Steve McIntyre <steve@einval.com>: Fat32 Hi Steve, Apple MacBook Pro (Retina 13" 2015, latest version). I don't remember the build release. It was in the end of November. The current release (Debian GNU/Linux testing "Stretch" - Official Snapshot amd64 DVD Binary-1 20151207-06:54) works well. With the latest stable (8.2.0) it doesn't work. Thank you for your job!
