I'm sorry for a lame question but, I have downloaded ISO from the freebsd website. Do I have to manually compare SHA512 od the iso and inside the CHECKSUM or is there a program that automates it? (I'm using Linux)

sha512sum -c <checksumfilename>

Alfarizz

then just reinstall all packages from the repo with pkg upgrade -f.

Thanks this solves my problem.

sha512sum -c <checksumfilename>

Hmm It throws 9 errors about not being able to find such file or a folder. I have checksum file and disc1.iso in the same folder.

mrphyber

can you post the output?

Geld [0/4💉] 🇵🇸 تحيا فلسطين

It's in Polish :(

I know work arounds. I'm just curious why it doesn't work as intended

mrphyber

the program is searching for the compressed iso (.xz)

mrphyber

if you pay closer attention it complains about xz file missing

Geld [0/4💉] 🇵🇸 تحيا فلسطين

Iy complaints about all files missing from the checksum.

Geld [0/4💉] 🇵🇸 تحيا فلسطين

But the iso is also there

mrphyber

ok I found it

mrphyber

it is verifying correctly but checks even for missing files

mrphyber

in the photo you sent, it checked the disc1.iso

Krond

Yeah, it found one file and said it's fine.

mrphyber

I don't know what DOBRZE means in polish but I suppose should be okay

Geld [0/4💉] 🇵🇸 تحيا فلسطين

Oh

Geld [0/4💉] 🇵🇸 تحيا فلسطين

Really?

mrphyber

Really?

yes it is in the first photo

Geld [0/4💉] 🇵🇸 تحيا فلسطين

Ohhhh

Geld [0/4💉] 🇵🇸 تحيا فلسطين

Hahahahhahaha

Geld [0/4💉] 🇵🇸 تحيا فلسطين

I lost it among all the errors. Sorryyyt

Geld [0/4💉] 🇵🇸 تحيا فلسطين

Yeah "Dobrze" is "correct/good" haha if it was in English I would notice it but I didn't pay much attention sorry again!

mrphyber

in freebsd there is shasum that has --ignore-missing to silence the output of missing files, I don't know if it exists on Linux

Geld [0/4💉] 🇵🇸 تحيا فلسطين

So to avoid missing file, I just grep for "DOBRZE"?

Geld [0/4💉] 🇵🇸 تحيا فلسطين

Oh

Geld [0/4💉] 🇵🇸 تحيا فلسطين

Yes. There is "--ignore-missing"

Geld [0/4💉] 🇵🇸 تحيا فلسطين

Merci ❤️

mrphyber

np man

Geld [0/4💉] 🇵🇸 تحيا فلسطين

Works.

mrphyber

nice

mrphyber

I'm used to the utils on freebsd and on linux I don't remember all the details

I installed FreeBSD on a VM. Installation very noob-friendly

Geld [0/4💉] 🇵🇸 تحيا فلسطين

I installed sudo, and I was looking for sudoers file in /etc/ like a noob hahaha

Geld [0/4💉] 🇵🇸 تحيا فلسطين

It's nice that BSD is organised nicely

Nameful

It's nice that BSD is organised nicely

In which way do you find it organised nicely?

Geld [0/4💉] 🇵🇸 تحيا فلسطين

It's all in /usr/ instead of in core /etc/ or /bin/ folder

Geld [0/4💉] 🇵🇸 تحيا فلسطين

It's more "clean" (?)

Nameful

But how is that more clean?

Geld [0/4💉] 🇵🇸 تحيا فلسطين

Hmmmm....

Geld [0/4💉] 🇵🇸 تحيا فلسطين

It doesn't create messy duplicates in both /etc and /usr like in linux?

mrphyber

I installed sudo, and I was looking for sudoers file in /etc/ like a noob hahaha

tryout doas instead of sudo

Nameful

It doesn't create messy duplicates in both /etc and /usr like in linux?

you mean in both /bin and /usr/bin?

Nameful

The only thing on my system there is that put something in /usr/etc is npm

Krond

I personally don't like sudo. Stupid bugs and bad habits.

Nameful

And I imagine npm would do that on FreeBSD too

mrphyber

I personally don't like sudo. Stupid bugs and bad habits.

I only use doas and works flawlessly

Krond

People need to choose whether they do trust someone and allow them to su, or use other synchronization primitives to provide more rights to restricted users.

Can't update pkg mirror to anything else than the original one. Xorg will take like 2 hours to download. Daaaamn. Will it be always like that?

Nameful

I had the exact same experience

Nameful

I couldn't figure out a solution though :(

Geld [0/4💉] 🇵🇸 تحيا فلسطين

Damn.

melvin

DragonFly

why?

Krond

Dunno. Interesting FS, better performance.

melvin

so just for the sake of curiosity?

Krond

Yeah, started like pure fun. Can't give up for 5 years I think.

melvin

i heard freebsd is commonly used by netflix. they were able to achive great net performance with it.

melvin

but i have never encountered articles about dragonfly commercial use

melvin

mm?

Geld [0/4💉] 🇵🇸 تحيا فلسطين

All the mirrored don't work for me

Geld [0/4💉] 🇵🇸 تحيا فلسطين

I do pkg+address and nothing

Nameful

I do pkg+address and nothing

that's what happened to me too

Nameful

to answer this question

Nameful

Do you mean whether the mirror loaded if I visited it from the web browser?

Geld [0/4💉] 🇵🇸 تحيا فلسطين

Web browser showed "can't connect to the address"

Geld [0/4💉] 🇵🇸 تحيا فلسطين

They don't work either

melvin

is this a meme?

Geld [0/4💉] 🇵🇸 تحيا فلسطين

Well....my internet works, if that's what you're trying to test.

Nameful

could you send an example link?

Geld [0/4💉] 🇵🇸 تحيا فلسطين

pkg.eu.freebsd.org

Geld [0/4💉] 🇵🇸 تحيا فلسطين

There are FTP links like these: ftp://ftp.pl.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/ But, they seem to be only to download ISOs?

Nameful

pkg.eu.freebsd.org

I also get an error attempting to access this

Geld [0/4💉] 🇵🇸 تحيا فلسطين

https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/mirrors-ftp.html

Geld [0/4💉] 🇵🇸 تحيا فلسطين

A person from 2015 forum post wrote pkg.eu.FreeBSD.org pkg.us-east.FreeBSD.org pkg.us-west.FreeBSD.org But neither work

Nameful

that sounds like it'd be outdated

Geld [0/4💉] 🇵🇸 تحيا فلسطين

Yup

Geld [0/4💉] 🇵🇸 تحيا فلسطين

I mean... It's so slow that I get a timeout....
