How do you check for upgrades/changes to the kernel? I'm thinking of upgrading again but I don't wanna go into kernel panic mode again

Upgrading from 13.2 to 13.3 yields this Fetching 19 files... ....10.... /usr/sbin/freebsd-update: cannot open filelist: No such file or directory done. rm: files.wanted: No such file or directory rm: filelist: No such file or directory rm: patchlist: No such file or directory

https://freebsdfoundation.org/blog/results-from-the-2024-freebsd-community-survey-report/ https://www.bsdnow.tv/564

welp, it was unsalvageable, upgrading was impossible

Rollback is your friend Update 13.2 to the end and then upgrade to 13.3 or 14.x

Hope's help

its a interessting hardware no matter what

This one is also cheap. Add more around $300. But the speed Ryzen 4650U is vastly faster then 2500U

that's what I did a month back, tried to upgrade yesterday, no go, I backed up as much as I could, but I couldn't

installing was also tricky since I wanted /home to be its own slice

Anyone using wayland here?

Wayland works?

Oh hey, I've seen that guy on irc. Ask him

I just noticed when I read the handbook today

I sent him an email days ago. He's inactive everywhere. I hope he's fine.

Anyone have problems building virtualbox-ose-kmod after 14.1 upgrade ?

Anyone have problems building virtualbox-ose-kmod after 14.1 upgrade ?

use bhyvee instead

Hi. Just upgraded from fbsd 13.3>14.1. The upgrade process was smooth. After restarting the computer i run these commands: sudo freebsd-update install Then: sudo pkg bootstrap -f as suggested(major version upgrade). And: sudo pkg update sudo pkg upgrade Running the latest command informed me that some pkgs will be removed/downgraded and reinstalled. I was surprised to see that FF, email client and other apps that i use will be removed. Why such behaviour? Why do you remove the installed apps like the email client, browser and so on?

Can anyone help me

And the main problem is I have to work on older version of freebsd like 11 12 13 in 11 12 PKG not working

I don't know how to transfer the file

There are tags in the ports repository on the last versions that support a particular FreeBSD version. For example, "git checkout 12-eol" to get the newest version that support FreeBSD 12.x.

scp or sftp?

I think this answer should be in Ports subgroup.

How to install PKG in older version

Ok

And the ports

Maybe update to the latest fbsd 14.1 as solution

Ports also not working throughing errors

But I have some project on older version

ArtInChip D21x PCBs arrived and I have assembled one for a test. The $4 chip has 64mb of DRAM included so it is capable of running FreeBSD. It also features high speed 4-lanes differential pair MIPI DSI so we can drive a smartphone-class display with it. I don't believe you can find anything similar on the market with such a spec in just 88-pins QFN package. Absolutely brilliant RISC-V SoC made for IoT market by Chinese Art 🎨 In Chip.

Replace any package installation with ports, and I suggest using portmaster.
