wow! i’m using mid 2010 i can see you’re using docker

I basically had to install that because a co-worker developed a tiny docker container that does some VPN and Proxy magic for one of our customers.

Works nice.

But yeah if I could choose the OS in use everywhere, it would very likely be FreeBSD in most situations.

I get the impression that I'm in control, and that I can actually understand what's going on in front of me, with FreeBSD. That's an impression I got back then when playing around with FreeBSD version 4. That was actually my first BSD desktop operating system.

It has never stopped feeling like that for me with FreeBSD, that's the operating system that didn't let me down.

Ewwwwww, use the browser version, relax, and take your time developing a workaround

I suppose you are not, but using FreeBSD you are in the right 👉 way! 😈

i found 5....i think that is the amount

i kinda of agree....

hi there ^^ so i am trying to install freebsd, i find nomad BSD , a contribution from my country germany., what do you think about? they have a trolling release now, that sounds good for me, also zfs and hardware detection

and , is it possible to install nearby opensuse? in dualboot?

wow that looks great. which desktop do yiu uise?

this is it: http://nomadbsd.org/download.html

found on distrowatch bsd search

That's just Openbox.

dwm is an excellent WM.

Yeah, I have a passion for minimalism

is it real quite that simple to flash an usb so? i am not a pro and normally i use iso or img files to "burn" on a flashdrive

As for FreeBSD, my remembrance says that the .iso files aren't "hybrid" and you need to use the .img "memstick" images if you want to directly dd them onto a USB flash drive.

so rename in img? works? i dont know how to handle this. is new for me...

and , if i want to install nearby the bootmanager, opensuse. should i partition the free space an the ssd or leave it unpartitioned?

its only one harddrive

for the beginning of the switch to bsd i want to use both. cause my opensuse works and i want to slowly migrate to bsd

now it is

dont wonder about that big swap. xD my battery is damaged so even the laptop just shuts down hard, everything is saved.

sometimes big is just better xD

i have to say, that i wonder how friendly the bsd community is. not as the linux community i dont know what problems they have with "noobs" i use via telegram a fedora community also because opensuse is also on rpm.

this tree is just nice :D

i cant use gpt on this notebook. its an older thinkpas w500

have to stand with mbr

cya ^^

nomadbsd is sth for someone new to freebsd....it is also good for older computers....beside it come with a live distro....u can even install it to your hard drive from the live distro....i tried it when it was an alpha/beta stage....to give feedback to them....try it....

in order to use the live distro....yout thumb drive need to be 8 gb at least....

so the thumb drive i s just as swap?

so the thumb drive i s just as swap?

u can boot from the thumb drive...like a linux live distro

a understand thumb is the usb flash

i installed it to an 32gb usb

can bsd use the linux swap too? or have i to manage another swap for bsd?

a understand thumb is the usb flash

yes...b4 it is called usb flash drive...it was n still called thumb drive

can bsd use the linux swap too? or have i to manage another swap for bsd?

i m not sure about that...cus it was so long ago that i used both on my machine...

can bsd use the linux swap too? or have i to manage another swap for bsd?

FreeBSD uses raw partition, linux use partition preformatted with 'mkswap' utility so you can attach linux swap on FreeBSD, it will working but after that linux will not use this partition without doing 'mkswap' again

thanks

👍🏽...

but before i cant install / boot from the flashed usb. my first step was: rename the nomadbsd.img.lzma to nomadbsd.img and wrote with flash program. cant boot into it. so i tried this manual : here you can see my tries....

can you explain me ?

after first command nomadbsd-x.y.z.img.lzma was unpacked to nomadbsd-x.y.z.img

is the location of the file correct....

yeah opend terminal in the download folder... ok maybe it dont works cause auf re renme . i download again i try again

why not do a cp -v Download/...img ~/ n do it from there

dont understand that...

why not do a cp -v Download/...img ~/ n do it from there

terminal cmd to copy file from the Download folder to the home folder...

is it better to do this from there?

it is the same i thought

now the first stepo worked. now iam just running dd bs=1M if=nomadbsd-x.y.z.img of=/dev/sdX conv=fsync

after sudo pw enter console seems works a process. ( nothing happend right now. wait fotr the next thing console says

after first command nomadbsd-x.y.z.img.lzma was unpacked to nomadbsd-x.y.z.img

👍 works

but now i am waiting the console is doing smth

ok works now the usb has at least round about 4gigs

give it a try ^^

Looks a bit drunken xD Hmm i only Choosed pw timezone and geli . Cant Choose Partition Or zfs Or ufs

after reboot grub only shows opensuse

in the bootmanager i cant find bsd. cause of the other partitionsystem

in the bootmanager i cant find bsd. cause of the other partitionsystem

try configurin grub manually....to add the bsd partition...

Dont works anymore...

It just needs some fsck.

I formatted sda1 which bsdals before. Made fsck /dev/sda1

Still THe Same showed here whilst trying to install bsd again

Hmm i reflash THe USB now ... And Format THe partiotion in THe ssd. I Want to install to sdd direkt

Are THe installer install bsdto Flash Drive ? Because After reflash THe thumbdrive it works again

Yeah. It does
