Hi! I know that this is maybe a stupid question but I'm a little confused about the FBSD scheming name(release, current, stable). Please correct me, from my understanding STABLE means stable version; RELEASE means a beta version and CURRENT means a dev version?

"Release" is the version most people should be using. It gets regular updates with security and bug fixes. Currently this is 13.0. "Stable" is an in-development pre-release channel for whatever's going to be in the next minor release. So currently, this would be what will soon be released as 13.1 "Current" is an in-development pre-release channel for the next major release. This is currently what will end up in 14.0

@CandyGumdrop: thank you!

Could you point to the Docs where this is clarified? I just searched for 5 to 10 Minutes and was about to spout opposing (most certainly wrong) claims (Current = dev, Release = the version to use, stable = tried and tested to no ends but old). I will forget your listing, and i will want to look it up. That you should generally use release, and that current is a development version is obvious in the freebsd.org/where page, bur what stable means i couldnt find. Though i have to admit i am on mobile

I think both Current and Stable are Development Snapshots according to the page you specified (freebsd.org/where/).

for me it's clear now: current is a alpha version, stable is a beta version and release is the final version

take a look at ventoy. it will allow you to boot various distro iso-s from there you may install.

Dell Inspiron, FreeBSD 13.0 Nvidia GT 525M & Intel HD Graphics 3000

That's an hybrid system. I have my doubts on using nvidia as the default is going to work at all. Normally the OS goes with the integrated gpu chip, and on the X environment, you select the programs you want to use with the dedicated gpu

hello

Me

i am very new to BSD but a long time linux user

Me

I would like to install freeBSD next to gentoo and arch

Me

could somebody help we with this?

Me

I would really like to learn FreeBSD :)

Candy

not sure what you mean by this. Both Linux and FreeBSD have modular kernels and there are proprietary drivers that exist for both.

Me

yeah, id like that, but ther realyy isnt much info on that. Biggest problem is installing FreeBSD on a partition

Candy

I'd recommend you go the approach of using UEFI with GPT partitions. FreeBSD has a UEFI loader which can be chain-loaded from something like rEFInd, which can provide the menu for switching between your various distros + FreeBSD

the thing is i have this situation: sda 8:0 0 3.6T 0 disk ├─sda1 8:1 0 1.5T 0 part /steam ├─sda2 8:2 0 1.5T 0 part /home ├─sda3 8:3 0 200G 0 part ├─sda4 8:4 0 200G 0 part └─sda5 8:5 0 254G 0 part nvme0n1 259:0 0 931.5G 0 disk ├─nvme0n1p1 259:1 0 5G 0 part /boot └─nvme0n1p2 259:2 0 926.5G 0 part / nvme1n1 259:3 0 953.9G 0 disk

Me

so i want to install FreeBSD only to sda4

Me

ik thats rll hard for some reason

Me

i boot from /dev/nvme0n1p1

Me

but also sda is already used by home on sda2, steam sda1 ans gentoo on sda5, so i cant reformat

Me

my bootloader is limine btw, if that helps

Me

oh, nvme1n1 is another OS, CurtainOS, my own distro.

Me

but i could move CurtainOS to /dev/sda4

Me

so if i install feebsd on nvme1n1 it should work?

Me

lol i dont, but thats how i learned linux so lets go XD

Me

btw, two bsd questions: why doesnt lsblk work?

Me

and is there another special place for drivers? my eth0 slot( i think u guys call it up)(ethernet anyways) doesnt work and a OS without ethernet is pretty useless
