Hello,
I've tried using FreeBSD but due to a lot of unsupported software and a few strange interactions with my CPU I simply wish to install another operating system. On Linux this would be easy, just use 'dd if=myiso.iso of=/dev/sdb (my ssd partition)'. However, when I tried to do this on FreeBSD, I got an 'operation not permitted' error.
I attempted to run it using this command: 'dd if=/root/Downloads/myiso.iso of=/dev/ada1', where I used ada1 assuming it was my SSD.
How can I achieve what I'm trying to do on FreeBSD? Yes I understand that using a USB is the easiest option but it was a perfectly viable option on Linux, and I don't see why that would change on FreeBSD.
