I'm not sure to switch fully to FreeBSD

For BSD you can choose what you want, but you need to understand how it works.

4 freebsd u wont need to have sex with syatemd

Everyone has something to say about systemd...

because inetd existed for ages with ability to run processes with socket activation, but you need to link to systemd to do so.

Nope, if you uses Docker, Steam, gparted, network GUI tools, ncurses make menuconfig to compile custom kernel, uefi better support, package manager with rollback support and more no uses Linux

what exactly? working for ages without issues?

Mhh Steam can be used on Win. I've got a dual boot with Win and Linux at the moment. Haven't tested Steam on BSD yet. For me sytemd and init have their own favour. Pros and cons as well. Anyhow freedom would be to choose if u want systemd or init

The same as computer science, systemd will be does has got an issues. But, why main Linux distros has choosen it?

Another monstrous framework done from scratch without fixing previous issues, without in-kernel sound mixing... etc. Google already dumped it from Android.

And that's the point. Ripping off systemd from linux distro is a pain. Switching to different RC in BSD world - pretty doable.

Nobody put in your head a magnum and tells uses Linux with systemd or die. You have a lot of many alternatives to use

You can have runit as process 1, it's in ports. You can have OpenRC. You can write whatever you want.

+1 - BSD seems more open and stand for stability. Many firms are using BSD systems. Anyhow BSD is criticized for its bad HW support sometimes

Linux would be more inestability, however, a lot of companies trust on it, pay to support it, and top500.org, all servers uses it. I think would be get unstability, but, It's changes always, always you can get a new solutions to issues, to better infraestructure, drivers support...etc I cannot boot PC-BSD for example in my laptop with UEFI support enabled because does not get a readibily screen in tty; or uses NVIDIA Optimus or nouveau driver, or uses STEAM without takes setup a Linux compatibility support; or uses ZFS spending more RAM because UFS it's too old and slow. The problem when you are in the "secure way", no more changes, no more features added without test a lot of this software per years ago... before to give flag as stable and after add to "stable software". It's does not work in this age. Why Linux is more popular and get a lot of invest? Because it's more changeable. Why FreeBSD still uses text to configure a kernel? why you have to looking for howtos of people apport more info here about compile options than the main documentation FreeBSD Handbook? Or why does not have end PAE support for years ago or virtualization platform?... because follows secure way...

It's true BSD has some more tricky issues. I remember having an issue with my Broadcom WiFi driver and finally I replaced due Atheros. It's true companies trust in Linux or Debian for server. Likewise I am in a freelancer company which Apple is foreward. But personally I use my Linux lap and Android devices. Actually it would be interesting doing a 30day challenge on BSD. As you said ZFS has pros and cons personally I like ZFS.

Sometimes, l like get information of FreeBSD status because I like id (despite I said before.) I was using 1 year in 2010 with 9.0-CURRENT, I got in loved with it. I was testing X.org new versions with PC-BSD team to report bugs, reported a bugs of ports software in general. In the end, I made a dvorak spanish keyboard map because It didn't exist. Yup, I was happy hacking remapping all keys to made a keymap and upload into FreeBSD! https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base/head/share/syscons/keymaps/spanish.dvorak.kbd?view=markup&pathrev=235251 I was made it. However, I surprised by FreeBSD team. Because they removed my credits in my file (I had uploaded and approved before). So... I understand as BSD license is more open but give more dead of code. Because I spent a time to contributing on develop of it keymap without gets money. Just It was a love, I would liked see my name today, because any people uses Spanish dvorak keyboard could be see the time spent by me these day to do work for him/her to get a keymap addapted...

I was made a first spanish community too http://freebsdspain.blogspot.com lol

Cool! I can speak and understand Spanish:)

Nice! :D You have a mate to speak Spanish #whateveryouwant

improvement doesn't need to be overcomplicated. Unix philosophy always implied working with simple yet powerful tools.

And that's the point. Ripping off systemd from linux distro is a pain. Switching to different RC in BSD world - pretty doable.

friends I want to install freebsd but I need a link to see how you can and then install dwm help me

Heck, I'm with ZFS since 2007. And beleive me, it's not a memory hog right now as it used to be. You can boot up and work on i386/512Mb nowadays without major issues.

Systemd is not bad. I don't need declare function to creates service likes SysV or upstart

I'm the guy who prefers writing 500 lines of bash over 10 lines of systemd Unit-Files btw. :-)

5 lines works for me hhaha

furybsd...booting from live usb

Until it doesn't haha

good morning friend I have a thinkpad l412 laptop and I want to know if formatting I do it with zfs?

That is what I do

How many partitions should I do?

Home root swap
