Indeed. That included a mass-market Unix based OS and stuff like that. It was a direct follow-on to all the "big" computer companies getting into the personal computer market, famously starting with IBM's PC (sic). In the case of IBM, it took them about 20 years to figure out that given their...

Maybe the IBM PS/2. I grew up on IBM's, but not sure if that's the model I used at home. By the mid 90's, around the time of the Pentium, the brand went away for home PC's. I wondered where it went. The company was still successful, just in other computer markets it seemed. Used a Zenith PC...

How about building that Beowulf cluster out of those Amigas? 😂

If anyone wants to use retro hardware, NetBSD is fine for that. Maybe you meant the original OS's. As for modern OS's, this is where 32bit SBC's (RISC & ARM [Raspberry Pi]) come in. While those are 8bit or additional 16bit computers, there needs to be no issue with running open source OS's...

Right, I'm stumped. I got a Raspberry Pi4B with FreeBSD 14.3-RELEASE on it. I'm hoping to use this for a few workloads that I'd like to separate into their own jails. This works fine on my AMD64 server elsewhere, but not on the Pi: test { host.hostname = "test.area536.com"...

FreeDOS reminded me of Public Domain OS. What's interesting about PDOS is: it comes under public domain license, it has a 32bit version which has compatibility with programs which are fullscreen intended for Windows in 32bit. It also has a download for ARM SBC's (ie Raspberry Pi), this is likely...

I changed the EEPROM vaue to boot from the USB flash drive stick first, then the microSD card 0xF41 ?? don't quote me , from my dull memory. could be wrong EEPROM value. Has anyone taken source code and recompiled to a binary to work under FreeBSD. I used the Raspberry Pi Linux OS microSD...

there is a known problem with boards with 8gb https://wiki.freebsd.org/action/login/arm/Raspberry%20Pi#Known_RPi_4_Issues

Identify What RPI system are you trying to boot FreeBSD in? How much DRAM memory does this RPI model have? You have 8GB dram, consider trying booting the virtual machine image of FreeBSD in a QEMU running on the Raspberry Pi O/S debian Linux. Boot problems that report Mountroot> Here is my...

I have downloaded freebsd 14.3 aarch64-RPI.img.xz and verified the checksum. I have created a bootable image with the Raspberry Pi imager. I have also created one with Disks in linux mint. On startup I am getting the same error having tested two brand new sd cards: mmcsd0: Error indicated. It...

Not much. My biggest "hop" was from Solaris to FreeBSD about 7 years ago. My Linux use is fairly insignificant compared to macOS and FreeBSD (and even illumos). At home I've used Kubuntu a little bit, SUSE and OpenSUSE a fair but but almost all of my home Linux use has been Fedora. Mainly cos...

For security/doas to go into base system, with option of disabling it. For there to be an option to fall back onto sh through chsh [chpass] if a chosen shell for a user in ports like shells/pdksh, shells/osk or shells/mksh isn't installed from ports, which can temporarily happen during system...

Greetings! My English is not very good, excuse me if I said something wrong... I have Raspberry Pi 5 with FreeBSD 14.3-STABLE and jail with FreeBSD 13.2-RELEASE-p10 I need to build some ports in this jail, but I'm running into a weird problem... By first, I tried to set variable "UNAME_r" to...

FreeBSD on two storage and backup servers and on my bhyve laptop. Another installation (XFCE) on one desktop computer Several Devuan linux installations for desktop purposes Windows 10. Very sophisticated game launcher. Comes with a CLI and a functional IP stack. Several family households...

On my Raspberry Pi4, the MicroSD card didn't fit with the case either. I scraped the hole in the case where the SD card goes to be wider with a multi-tool, so it would fit correctly, and so the lid would close. Can't see the MicroSD slot in the image. For those who don't have a RPi4, it's on...

openSUSE Tumbleweed & openSUSE Leap 16.0 RC on office laptops. Fedora on personal laptop. FreeBSD, NetBSD & OpenBSD on spare SSD. I had a NUC that went KO. Debian on Raspberry Pi 5 with ZFS . Raspberry Pi 4b for all kinds of experiments. Lots of others in VM's. I want a cheap NUC to...

Servers: FreeBSD. They are headless. Desktops (the most used one is a laptop): MacOS. Raspberry Pi: Debian (or Raspbian, same thing). I will probably sooner or later switch my servers to Debian or Ubuntu, as ZFS support on Linux is getting better, and FreeBSD is CTD or FTD. The one prerequisite...

That is indeed an interesting question, and a part of what is called "systems research" (the research into how to build operating systems). That used to be a rich discipline, with two major conferences (SOSP and OSDI), and lots of research work going on, both at universities, and at the...

The accusations by other users are no longer there. It was said directly. I was trying to understand myself, which modern programming languages were optimal for writing kernels and the basis of operating systems, in comparison to C. Also, the status of the most advanced and specialized...
