Hello,
I've been surfing through the FreeBSD forums and resources for quite some time now and I have couple of questions. But first, few things about me
1. I've been with Linux since a very long time and I'm comfortable with it. It has been solid for me without many issues. (Main laptop is running Arch and secondary laptop is running Gentoo. My servers run CentOS). I've tried FreeBSD on a virtual machine yesterday for the first time.
2. I don't really care if I run systemd or Open-RC or some other init system.
3. I'm waiting for my Nvidia Jetson Nano and in the mean time looking for a distro (other than Debian and distros based on it) to run on it. I came across this-thread and been wondering about FreeBSD as an option.
My Questions
1. With reference to the pi-thread-in-feedback-section, ucomp suddenly mentioned "stable professional FreeBSD-Server"; whereas I see no mention of Pi to be used as a server (maybe OP uses Pi as a home server, but it wasn't clear from that first post)
Is that how almost everyone here sees FreeBSD? OS to power mostly servers; OR does Tier 1 support equate to that class of stability(to be able to run and support production servers). I disagree with argument presented by ucomp but that's out of the scope of my thread.
2. Can my Jetson Nano run on FreeBSD without issues (Assuming Nvidia rep mentioned what he was told to say)? I come under the "enthusiast" category and would like to try some of these-jetson-projects. That would be my use case.
