I think I would need to run ZFS on top of a clustered filesystem. I'm not entirely sure how this actually works. In other words would the client be talking to the clustered fs or ZFS? I read some things on using lustreFS with ZFS on top, but I'm not sure if thats stable yet. I'm going to...

HAST looks like a software RAID. I'm looking for something that will allow a shared pool storage primarily for video. Something to replace XSAN or StroNext. Except that is a clusteredFS with ZFS on top specifically on FreeBSD. thanks! z3r0

Anyone have any recommendation for setting up clustered storage? Specifically ZFS on top of a clustered filesystem? Is glusterfs any good? http://www.gluster.org/ If I could find something similar to theGluster Storage Platform but based on FreeBSD would be great! Have a look at these...

Hi, I'm looking for a good FreeBSD web host. What do you guys recommend? SSH access and ability to install ports a plus. Thanks, z3r0

I'm curious to see how this compares to FreeBSD Jails and if it has any advantages over it. I doubt its more powerful then Jails. Is Capsicum in the kernel, can it manage resources like Jails? z3r0

Well jolicloud linux installed (based on ubuntu) even though I couldn't get normal Ubuntu to work strange as it may seem. I think I'm going to give FreeBSD one more shot, I managed to boot from the USB but was unable to install. This time I'll boot from the USB and specify the cd-rom with...

After not being able to install FreeBSD on my Sony Vaio P530H via a USB img I picked up an external usb cd room drive to boot from a cd. I cant get past the bootstrap loader screen and receive the 'v not found' error then a bunch of hex values an "BTX haulted" message. v not found int=0000006...

Well Im trying to install FreeBSD. I tried the memstick.img version with no luck as well, I kept getting a "No UFS" error. I can boot with the USB following the method in the link just fine. I just can't install as when I boot up sysinstall doesn't see anything in ufs. I think it's searching...

I'm having issues installing FreeBSD from a bootable USB. I can make it to sysinstall and create the partitions but when I try to install GENERIC etc... are not found. I changed the media to filesystem and specified /mnt with no luck. Selecting usb under media does not work as no usb is...

Wish I would have checked the specs, before purchasing. It was a really good deal at first glance. Only if the Poulsbo drivers would work or perhaps if a wrapper existed. z3r0

Frenzy BSD looks great! As for the VESA driver is that built into FreeBSD? I can work with the terminal alone, I don't need anything special. I've heard of Mac OS X running on the Sony Vaio P, I wonder what video driver is being used. It might work with FreeBSD, or at least a generic...

Grr... the GMA500 driver might be a problem. Would the Linux driver work under the linux compatibility layer?

I just pick up a Sony Vaio VGN-P530H at a great price and hopefully it will be arriving soon, but in the mean time I'm wondering if anyone has managed to install FreeBSD on it and if perhaps they could post anything that they have found useful in installing it on the P series. Any driver issues...

Has anyone successfully installed Subversion with ruby bindings plus warehouseapp, apache2.2 (mod_dav) and svnserv (svn + ssh) and ldap? WareHouseApp I installed subversion (not sure if properly) using svnserve (svn+ssh) and i can connect to the repository but I can't write to it, I get a...

Well I just upgraded to VMware Fusion 3 and it allows you to create up to 10 virtual NICs(vmnet) per virtual machine. I'm just having trouble installing FreeBSD 7.2 on it, for some reason the install fails. Usually is a straight forward process. I'm going to wait for the 8.0 realease and try...

Ok, so I'm running FreeBSD inside VMware Fusion and I want to use Jails to create a couple of servers. Now I want to be able to access these servers from outside VMware Fusion. I'm a little confused. VMware assigns one IP to the virtualized FreeBSD install, so how would I connect to the Jails...

Can't wait to see it in action! GCD on its way over as well: http://www.appleinsider.com/articles/09/10/16/freebsd_adds_support_for_snow_leopards_grand_central_dispatch.html Now only if inetd and the rc scripts were replaced with launchd: http://developer.apple.com/macosx/launchd.html Here's...

I was cruising the net and read an article that Grand Central Dispatch is being ported over to FreeBSD which is great news! I'm curious to see what other technologies FreeBSD is planning to port as well. What's the status of launchd and clang/llvm? Those two look like great candidates to...

I wonder if there is an equivalent in Jails to Solaris Zone Doors?

I think you are pretty much out of luck unless Jails get ported to Mac OS X (it wouldn't be a bad idea!). chroot is available, but no where near Jails in terms of functionality. virtual hosts might work for multiple domains, but you can really have a custom apache install for each. (i.e. perl...
