@FreeBSD1

Hi guys I'm new in bsd world, I'm using Debian as the main os and sometimes win10. I wanted to try something different like Slackware or arch and I will eventually, but right now I think that freebsd has much more to offer. Every linux distro has it's pros and cons and the best one is the one you DIY. But I can do similar with bsd and seems to be better and much less painful experience. I'm trying out ghostbsd, it's awesome but I feel like I want to use FreeBSD and build it for my needs. I would like to know how can I automate installation and configuration, first to create answer file, configure network driver and then to run commands and scripts to install additional software. Also what are some of the important things for a desktop user that are not present in the stock freebsd? I did install it in virtual box and with xfce and seems to work fine but there are probably a lot of things to add and configure. For example media codecs, fonts, ntfs and other common fs support, printing. I will go through the official docs and try to figure it out, I would appreciate if you can give me some tips so I can skip the stuff that I don't need. I will eventually compile the kernel too.

I think you'll enjoy arch more

Hi guys, I am planning to install FreeBSD in Laptop as base system. I want ask you how deal with wifi after installing and wanna ask also about NetworkManager, is it available in freeBSD?

NetworkManager is a Linux thing, of cause we don't have it.

Thanks, can you please tell me how handle wifi

Only i have seen in internet is using wpa_supplicant and password of ssid is will be mentioned in config file . 💔😅

I think NetworkManager probably also uses some files to store passwords.

You can remove your password from the file. Run this: wpa_passphrase "SSID_TEST" "MYPASDWD"

you need to partition and learn how do dual-boot

root@donieck:/usr/home/Daniel/Downloads # dd if=ubuntukylin-22.04-desktop-amd64.iso of=/dev/da0 bs=4m dd: /dev/da0: Operation not permitted

Unmount first

Fine. I cannot help you then.

but seriously, do you understand virtualization?

Maybe look at one of the several wrappers available, like vm-bhyve.
