Why FreeBSD, if I may..

[dorijan]

Now I am in the twilight zone. Since I installed FreeBSD 15 in my T520 Lenovo and on reboot it did not boot. I will check with sha256 just in case.

Have you sold it, maybe someone will find it useful..

Because it's free of charge and it works very well.

I have a W520 which I'm very pleased with.

What happens when you switch on? Do you get a BIOS screen?

It is more likely to be a hardware problem rather than anything to do with FreeBSD.

Can you see any indication of it having any power?

ZFS as first-class citizen, kernel debugging as first-class citizen, crash dumps as first class citizen, solid drivers for tape devices, geom and CAM, pf. the linux equivalents don't even come close.

The right question isn't why, but why not?

The right question isn't why, but why not

That's right

Why not?

I don't use FreeBSD because it does not run properly on my hardware.
