So, no 3.5" mech disks? A mini PC with a few small drives and 2.5 Gbit network is possible but that gets more expensive if storage space counts. Especially now. Prices are ridiculous. We need more manufacturers of memory and storage.
A node CLI program is a program written in javascript that run in console using node.js interpreter. a gjs GTK3 program is a program written in javascript that run in GUI using gjs (Gnome JavaScript) interpreter. Both interpreters are ECMAScript...
IIUC this wastes memory. Maybe not much, but it could be zero waste if only the neccessary modules were loaded.
When you change some hardware, e.g. the soundcard, this test needs to run again and increases the boot time. Why do modern UEFI...
I reported a horrible bug in the default configuration of local-unbound in FreeBSD more than 5 years ago. NOTE: This bug does not affect the upstream (genuine) unbound, instead just FreeBSD's configuration of it shipped as default in the base...
Many thanks to T-Daemon for pointing out something I hadn't noticed and that I could use iocage list -l which gives me what I need.
ps. I noticed iocage list -PRO which looks quite interesting.
Could you please name them? I can get me a list from ports myself, but there'll be good ones and less good ones...
NOTE: This is of low priority to me, you may answer in 2 months. But sooner or later I'd like to set up a "real" DNS for my home...

What transfer speed should it have?
I never had any official NAS system. What's wrong with a PC? You're not going to exceed the lowest network speed of clients and server anyway Very nice "NAS" that I have now is a HP Prodesk with 2x1TB m.2 and...
I want to be able to do: zpool scrub
I want to have control over the system, namely known OS.
Not necessarily, but if the storage is not in the system I work, other cable will be necessary.
No problem with eSATA cable, but why not an ethernet...
Many, many years ago I set up an "authoritative" domain with a bogus TLD .home. For multiple reasons, the first was that I wanted to learn about DNS and how it worked. The second reason was to have something I could use for my homelab to register...

Did you add the directory in your httpd.conf? Or just put it in the directory? What I have found, (not that I know much about it), is that for example, I have my DocumentRoot. Then, not touching the conf file, I make a subdirectory under it. Now...
Why waste precious memory? Even if the memory for the modules is labeled as "file-backed by an immutable file", i.e. it does not need swapspace because it's immutable, any unused module loaded still comsumes some kernel metadata, since the...

It seems that IOCAGE works very differently to other jails.
I can achieve what I want by writing a script using jls and the parsing the output to run jexec JID ifconfig and parsing that, but I thought there may be something ready made.
Maybe...
Maybe file permissions vs network stack security?
Can things reading on localhost see other things? (not sure how to word that better :p but can nginx see PHP-FPM on 127.0.0.1:9002 if only 9001 is specified in a nginx conf, or able to see a...
I disagree about SSD vs HDD for the simple reason of price per GB. HDD is still cheaper and with proper buffering/caching the end user shouldn't notice any throughput difference. Also HDD tech is very mature and public. flash memory is still...
I run FreeBSD 14 on a TERRAMASTER F2-425 as my "removable drive" backup system. It has an internal USB port where I have mounted a USB-SSD thumb drive for the OS. If I remember correctly, to install, I added the internal USB-SSD thumb drive, then...
And it's everywhere - FreeBSD, Linux, Mac, even Windows! No one told me why commands with long outputs could be viewed one screen at a time by adding " | more" when I worked with DOS or (if I remember correctly) Commodore Basic, but there it was...
Welcome!
I think you'll like FreeBSD. It is in some respect simpler, neater, and more organized than Linux. It's easier to see and control all the moving parts in it.
Depending what you do on Linux, it may be a relatively small adjustment. Many of the programs are the same, to state the standard cliche ones, there's firefox, thunderbird, various terminals and they all pretty much run the same on Linux and...
IMV the major difference is /dev/sda1 v /dev/ada1 or /dev/da1 for naming devices which must take some getting used to for a seasoned Linux user.
The great advantage FreeBSD has over Linux is its package management system, ie pkg v pacman, apt...
The meta-loader can simply load the correct kernel module. Similarly to snd_driver (which loads every available snd_* driver), but maybe with some added logic to only load the appropriate kernel module? Not sure if the logic is possible, it might...

Is that the same CalJam that Deep Purple played at?
Ozzy really shouldn't cup the microphone like that, ruins the sound. Or maybe it is the sound he's looking for.
That's an understatement.
Every day I feel that the 'unknown unknowns' are growing exponentially as I become aware about how little I know about FreeBSD.
Before posting a bug report labeled as [request], I'd like to hear your opinions to lift the quality of my bug report as high as possible.
This is my DRAFT, that you may kindly enhance:

This install is interesting.

How do I allow access to this file. The ownership is www:www .
You're so young. ;)
In the beginning there was init. Berkeley (BSD) tweaked it a little while AT&T created SYSV's init. Sun came out with an init that worked with their SMF (services) daemon. But init was still there and could be used in SYSV...

Hello,
Previously I tried to use Ollama on FreeBSD with my Nvidia GPU and it did not work, it uses CPU only, on the host or in a jail.
Recently I have been using llama.cpp (version 8182, 28 Feb 2026) in a jail with Nvidia GPU support without...
Because it chokes up the process, so now only the regular www/chromium gets built, something that took almost 25 hours by the way.
