No, /boot is in the root filesystem for this setup. I also think that vintage of FreeBSD cannot have a separately mounted /boot partition because the kernel is directly in /
I think back in that day the kernel actually lived in the root filesystem, "/kernel". /boot has assorted support stuff.
Yes, I did md mount the thing. That is how I populated the filesystem with the old install.
As a test I put a modern...
Yes, I know that. I took in account several things to write my program, the first was speed. Loading and parsing the index is very fast, all the info needed to build a map of ports tree in memory can be done with index, so if you want to make a...
I personally find Qemu 1 of the best OS testing/engineering toolkits ever made. tt works when you don't expect it. It really should have a readable manual. The manpage is too long to quickly return to something.
I hoping to script this.
Can anyone check that I have this right?
cat <<EOF > apache.scr
/ mpm_event_module /s/^#//g
/ mpm_prefork_module /s/^/#/g
/ proxy_module /s/^#//g
/ proxy_fcgi_module /s/^#//g

/ ssl_module...
No, I should have clarified this.
That diskimage has both BIOS and uEFI loading gear. I took a working FreeBSD image, mounted the root partition inside it and untarred the 2004 install in there. I left the bootloaders and the uEFI partition alone.
I want to run an old FreeBSD install from 2004 in a VM. I know this isn't a supported release anymore but bear with me :)
The only format I have is a tarfile of the root filesystem. It includes /boot and /kernel. I untarred it over a disk image...
Then the SSL/TLS connection would fail entirely, which is not the case here. The webserver is returning a 403 Forbidden error. That's typically a permission issue on the webserver, i.e. the www user not being able to read those files.
Probably a...
So, you learned AI's answers are useless to anybody not versed in a certain topic.
That's a good start.
And you don't need it.
Instead of asking several chatbots, producing and reading several answers, dealing with discrepancies, then asking...
I'm assuming that you're already familiar with BSPWM. If not, dwm is a good window manager that can be used without a mouse, and even some stacking ones, like openbox, can be used without a mouse, just creating keyboard shortcuts.

Butterfly you did mention Manjaro earlier, and I just forgot while I was typing. I told you you're a child compared to me, it was one of too many senior moments. :)_

You're referring to this disclaimer?
That's been the case for a long time for all cryptographic materials coming out of the US. Such materials were initially classified as military equipment. Then, for decades, they were regulated as dual-use...
Take notes somewhere! I have a wiki and when starting out with 14.1 I copied an older Linux set-up's notes and changed it as I went. Kept doing it for later FreeBSD 14 releases, 15, even CURRENT, and adapted the desktop notes for server...
Waydroid iirc had something easy to import Play Store/etc. LineageOS is default-no Google apps and they need flashed separately. microG could also be integrated into ROMs instead of Google apps.

It's kind of silent. I think they chose to wait on the Brasil solution that still has to happen.
Google is presenting Reddit as FreeBSD forums for the debate. Pathetic and already a red flag. That's no accident...
A little challenge is to boot the installer memstick and install FreeBSD to another memstiick. At the start it will be slow because all system software is on USB storage but you can steal a piece of the existing OS partition and move a lot to it...
Introducing a queen or king of the Borg went against what the Borg were introduced to be in TNG, though. The whole point is that they don't have a head huncho and are self-organizing.
cracked.com often has a collection of allegedly funny tweets. Most are mediocre, but this made me laugh.
Tailgating me while I'm going 80 in a 45 zone is crazy. And those red and blue lights on top of your car look stupid.

Hello,
I've been using Linux and BSD since the early 2000s. I would really like to thank the entire FreeBSD 15 team for delivering such a high-quality desktop system. I run FreeBSD 15 with Wayland (Plasma), and it absolutely screams. There is no...

Come to think of it, NetBSD has in its terms that it can't be used in a few countries. You can see it if you ftp to its website from the console. There's another BSD license which doesn't allow code exported from the US (or maybe it was from the...

I'd disagree. You're using the meaning in a different way. However, if it makes you think of native people tribes, feel free to suggest a better word, since, if you do think of it that way, I can certainly see why you'd think it a poor choice...
How much room do you have for expansion? Are you really limited to a single USB port, the 2xNVME and 2xSATA?
My opinion, L2ARC/SLOG depends on the anticipated use patterns. I think SLOG is useful if you are doing lots of synchronous writes...
The board can take up to 2x16 = 32 GB DDR4 LPDIMM and in addition to the internal USB 2.0 it has 2xUSB 3.x on the outside. So I could plug in more external HDD. But AFAICS a simple mirror with 2x6 TB = 4 GB mirrored + (2 + 2) = 4 TB striped for...
USB thumb drives as root filesystems always make us think "Rodime SSD". Cheap thumb drives use garbage flash that can't retain data. This is why our root pool is an NVMe mirror.
That looks like the bigger & newer version of what I have, a Terramaster F2-423. Like I already wrote this small box is oversized to serve me just as a NAS. IMHO semi-professional hardware AFAICT up to now. And I got it used for cheap money...
Easiest way to get into it is to just install it. It should work with most laptops. Most Linux programs you use will be available on FreeBSD, so if you, for example, use the openbox desktop, you can use it on FreeBSD. As far as I know, there...

Enterprise was cool, but kind of a mislead plot, and rushed ending. The final seasons were great.

Thanks. I feel old now. I had to carry 17" CRT around, use serial line to make a network to play Doom or an online text-mud.
In that case, I recommend reading the book series around that. The Centauri trilogy has all the back story around Londo...
My way of handling that is to just queue a folder full of eps on random shuffle :cool:
I like actively doing stuff (like games) and can't imagine sitting down and watching a new series in-order from ep1 start. I liked the random older Trek eps I...
