Most modern ISO images for AMD64 are hybrid images and be written as both
DVD-R's or to USB sticks.

The Last update to Mac OS X 10.5, 10.5.8 was released in August 2009, it is
nearly 10 years old, and it appears the finder does not support mounting these
images.

The modern Ubuntu ISO's for example, will give the same error - specifically I
tried:

ubuntu-18.04-2-desktop-amd64.iso

Like the FreeBSD ISO, the Ubuntu ISO won't open in finder, but can still be
burned to a DVD-R using Disk Utility.
