Cannot install FreeBSD

[Johneh]

Followed steps in FreeBSD install manual Ch 2.
OS X El Capitan Ver 10.11.6 , iMac (24”, mid 2007), Processor 2.8 GHz Core2 Duo,
Downloaded FreeBSD-13.0-RELEASE-amd64-dvd1.iso. Burned to dvd.
inserted dvd, and depressed “Alt” key at boot, Result > two HD icons, macintosh HD (default arrow), and
Recovery 10.11.6. HD. Option for install not present.
I want to install FreBSD and over write the current iMac OS which is Darwin.

To boot from DVD on OS X Leopard (10.5.8 IIRC), the hot key to boot from DVD was to hold down the letter [C] key instead of the [ALT] key. Might be worth a try.
