You could dispense with zfs receive and just store the output from zfs send as a single file. zfs send source/dataset@backup | ssh user@targethost 'cat - > my-zfs-dump' You'd loose the ability to easily restore individual files but you could restore the entire dataset from the file in the...

Edit /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/FreeBSD.conf FreeBSD: { url: "pkg+http://pkg.FreeBSD.org/${ABI}/quarterly", } and run pkg fetch chromium as root. This will download the package into/var/cache/pkg/ from where it can be installed with pkg add. But by mixing quarterly and latest you will probably run...

Chromium is failing to build on the FreeBSD package cluster so it's quite likely that you won't be able to build it either until the problem is fixed. If you keep an eye on https://www.freshports.org/www/chromium/#packages you will see when it becomes available in latest. In the meantime you...

Thanks, that works fine. Though it turns out that my initial need to add kernel debugging has gone away. Some time ago I was suffering from intermittent crashes when trying to start certain programs such as libreoffice, audacity and gimp These problems have gone away after upgrading from 13.2...

Good point. It would be safer if the op were to create a completely new pool on the drive being added and then mount the filesystem from that pool on a suitable mountpoint in the original filesystem, e.g. something like this after creating the new partitions on ada1 zpool create newpool ada1 zfs...

But be aware that there's a danger that filesystems from the imported pool could be mounted on top of your working system, BTDTGTTS. Consider using the -R option of zpool import to specify a different mount point for the imported system

That looked interesting so I gave it a try but hit some snags. First I created the following as /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/FreeBSD-base.conf FreeBSD-base: { url: "pkg+http://pkg.FreeBSD.org/${ABI}/base_release_0" mirror_type: "srv", signature_type: "fingerprints", fingerprints...

After upgrading some packages yesterday dolphin is no longer able to copy and paste files. When I attempt to paste a file I get the error message "The file or folder Message recipient disconnected from message bus without replying does not exist". Here's a list of all the packages affected by...

It looks like there must have been at least one other dependency not detected by pkg upgrade when upgrading just ungoogled-chromium. I've now upgraded all my packages and the full set of shutdown options have become available when leaving KDE.

Until a few days ago I always had the options to Sleep, Hibernate, Restart, Shutdown or Logout when exiting from KDE but now my only choice is Logout. The change coincides with a recent upgrade of ungoogled-chromium curlew:/root# pkg upgrade ungoogled-chromium Updating FreeBSD repository...

I've made a bit of progress but no solution yet. I installed a 13.2 bhyve guest with kernel dubigging enabled and copied the crash dump files into it, Running kgdb in the byhve guest produced what looks like more useful output root@freebsd132-vm:/var/crash # kgdb /boot/kernel/kernel vmcore.7...

That had me confused too but 'GNU gdb (GDB) 13.1 [GDB v13.1 for FreeBSD]' refers to the version of the package, not the OS. curlew:/home/mike% pkg info -E gdb gdb-13.1_3 curlew:/home/mike% freebsd-version -kru 13.2-RELEASE-p2 13.2-RELEASE-p2 13.2-RELEASE-p2So it looks like I need to install...

Is there a way I can directly install kernel-dbg or will I need to build a new kernel from source?

I get occasional random crashes when opening some applications in KDE. The most common culprits are libreoffice. gimp and audacity. When this happens everything freezes as soon as the application starts and after a few seconds the system reboots and saves a crash dump. However when I try to run...

There's been build problems for a few months now. https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/is-vscode-broken.88334/

You can avoid updating /etc/ssh/sshd_config by setting configuration data in /etc/rc.conf. For example I have the following: sshd_enable="YES" sshd_flags="-o PermitRootLogin=prohibit-password -o ChallengeResponseAuthentication=no"

Thanks, that works fine with chromium. Autotype is a feature I hadn't previously explored
