Update:

devuan_daedalus_5.0.0_amd64_desktop-live.iso ... BOOTS
devuan_daedalus_5.0.0_amd64_minimal-live.iso ... BOOTS

It seems like the only way to install the system is using the live ISOs. Please somebody look into the installer ISOs!

Greetings,

I've been a Devuan user for a long time (since Jessie). Never had a major issue and I'm very happy with this distro. Thanks for making it!

Now I'm trying to boot the new Daedalus ISOs but they don't work with my computers (amd64 netinstall, amd64 desktop). Neither using physical DVDs nor Rufus. There's not even a boot screen/syslinux splash. The system completely hangs on the POST screen.

Just to be sure that my flashdrive or CD/DVD drives are OK, I also tested new DeBian isos, and they worked as expected. Since I tried more than one computer that supports both UEFI and CSM (Legacy), I think there's something wrong with the ISO files. Interestingly, they work ok when you use the .iso file on VirtualBox.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

PS: Beowulf ISOs work fine too.
