    As this is probably the first instance of release FreeBSD being upgraded by another means, I wanted to do some chit chat before the upgrade. The minor version bump using pkgbase looks pretty straightforward. However the major version bump seems...

    No need to delete the pkg, just comment out the line. Pkg upgrade after freebsd-update will pull in the relevent new version.

    I'm not fond how of HardenedBSD has splintered the community and potential resources for FreeBSD. They could've simply relegated to being a security patchkit for vanilla FreeBSD. (ie. grsecurity, Hardened Gentoo) With pkgbase, I see less reason...

    Yes. Do as SirDice says. But also pkg delete whatever drm-kmod you have and reinstall it. Then reenable kld_list in rc.conf and reboot.
  • tembun
    I'm not sure whether it still applies, but there is also a patch attached to 278230 addressing this very problem.

    Updating bootloaders (my opinion based on what I've experienced): Historically it's safe. Today's bootloader must have knowledge of last years filesystems (backwards compatibility) and has knowledge of "today", but can't know about "tomorrow"...

    I use Claude AI in a browser, which means you can do it on any platform. I'm not a "professional user" of it though. You can upload your files/projects and ask questions using normal English (and I believe, español también).

    scottro, it actually means that uname wasn't installed by pkg. So, no pkgbase here.
