@Aldrin_Jr wants to transform the Linux kernel from arch to the FreeBSD OS 😅

No, not like that, I just want to know, if I want to update the freebsd system will I lose the previous data or not? and if not is there a way like arch which can update & upgrade the whole system with just 1 command? Instead of installing from new image

freebsd-update
is made for that. it is an utility that automatically fetches and installs patches for your installed release (
freebsd-update fetch && freebsd-update install
) or upgrades your current freebsd installation (
freebsd-update -r x.y-type upgrade
).
refer to the handbook for more details: https://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/updating-upgrading-freebsdupdate.html

Something weir happened right now to my freeBSD. I just installed a fresh iso and the first time I'm asked to fetch 'pkg' it says there's a conflict:
freeBSD-13-amd64 doesn't match freeBSD-13.0-amd64
How can I solve this? Do I have to update the whole system?
ɴꙩᴍᴀᴅ
I tried updating the system and reinstalling 'pkg' from ports with no luck
ɴꙩᴍᴀᴅ
pkg: wrong architecture: FreeBSD:13.0:amd64 instead of FreeBSD:13:amd64
Repository contains packages with wrong ABI
Is there a way to change/edit architecture's name?

Good luck with that, I use a >10 years old Thinkpad.

Sure about the "recent" thing?
I saw guy on youtube using one of the latest with free and open bsd

Well if you find a reasonable machine for cheap that 100% works with both, I'd be super interested in what machine that is and how it turns out for you.

Guys, I'll very soon buy myself a new PC based on a Ryzen 5 1600 and RX 570 (all AMD)
How does *bsd deal with amd hardware?
