Yes, I know, but it's a temporary setup for experimentation. Vnet (thins) jails are the next step.

Uh. Actually nobody and nothing can.

rsync -a --hard-links --sparse --acls --xattrs

Being perfectly happy with Win95/98? That's just sick. Seriously, I don't see the point anymore. For you FreeBSD is for NAS and other severs, only, and else just way too much tinkering. OK. You already made up your mind to use some turn-key...

I would have no problems stating that as fact.

Did it ever invent or construct something that has an approveable market value? I don't think so... The problem also starts with a bogus term. AI? What are we talking about? Logic processing of bit sequences with a GPU projection system is the...

Good catch! That only works at boot. A fix is to create /etc/dhclient-exit-hooks as follow: #!/bin/sh # # File : /etc/dhclient-exit-hooks if [ "${interface}" != "re0" ] ; then exit fi case "${reason}" in BOUND|RENEW|REBIND|REBOOT)...

What does top show in terms of any swapping? iostat -w 1 or gstat to see if the disks are busy.

There must be a somehow constant feed of "value data" that comes from people donating their creative thoughts by publication on AI think-services. If you rely on AI-generated knowledge for everything, you're losing points at originality and value...

It's not. Software is the application of a computer. It requires no special privileges.

Take a piece of the SSD space for the 2nd OS, Only boot from USB, then mount the SSD filesystem as / and forget the stick. My daily custom FreeBSD USB install boots from a stick and then forgets where it booted from. You can pkg install into the...

If USB boot works, you can boot the FreeBSD installer stick and install to a 2nd stick. When finished, change /etc/fstab, so that it tries the 1st USB drive da0 which was da1 during the installation. It's usually slower than a disk but there are...

Fork?

Who has a phone that runs native *BSD, accepts some USB keyboard, real display and is able to make a real phone call on a mobile network? I've never heard of it. What's the price?

For some reaon my system, ThinkPad W520 with 16GB RAM running FreeBSD 15.1 has suddenly become unusable slow. Chrome does doe not start up at all. Is there anything I can check to see what is going on. TOP does not show any processes hogging...

Having access to a pre-LLM copy of the Internet is very valuable. Huge advantage for Google.

Yes you read it correctly. The fabulous ZFS Boot Environments – more about them here – https://is.gd/BECTL – if you are not familiar with this concept – are now also possible on UFS filesystems on FreeBSD. Of course in little different form and...

I prefer the service pf reload approach. Internally this checks that there are no syntax errors in /etc/pf.conf (or the pf_rules path if set in rc.conf) and then loads (pfctl -f $pf_rules) it. Note that established TCP connections are not...

Ever played the telephone game as a kid?

Triggered by HoMM mentioning :) I have II/III on my PC in multiple iterations. For Heroes2 i use fheroes2 engine which is great, but does not load Succession Wars maps. I run original CD release from Heroes Compendium CD using a dosbox preset I...

Does it boot from USB?

I wonder what AI does when it scrolls through an AI generated site; especially one that contains wrong information.

From a last week's game: The artifacts are not so impressive, but the army is quite useful. 😁 Also enough spell points (pointless to pick Intelligence, though, but the other choice had been Ballistics for the last skill.) And of course she can...

<Nitpick> It was Apple II, yes? </Nitpick>

SEO (backlinking), which is why I broke all the links to it.

Intentionally broke the links, we don't want to give them any validity by back linking.

Looks like text content that's a random selection already puublic content. Who's going to scroll through it all?

It does a syntax check with -n then a pfctl -f /etc/pf.conf. pf_reload() { echo "Reloading pf rules." pf_resync } pf_resync() { $pf_program -n -f "$pf_rules" $pf_flags || return 1 $pf_program -f "$pf_rules"...

Maybe run servce devd status and/or service devd restart

Came across some explanation while editing an old post (~2009), didn't pay much attention to it hunting for the links. Now I can't find that post anymore. Will try to dig it up again. Edit: Scratch that. No explanation, site reportedly crashed...

It seems the site is trying to be helpful. Perhaps with an initial goal of making money from ads but I don't see that anywhere. It might be helpful if we knew who the creator was. If it was someone we knew, that might help.

Unrelated but thought I'd post it here. I have a 8ft by 14ft garden area in my backyard. Never had luck planting anything there so, just to try it, I asked chatgpt to give me some planting ideas along with an image. In my original question I told...

Oops. That was the creation date of the registrar 🤦‍♂️ Anyway, gone through a bunch of old posts, if it was a reference to a port, replaced it with our regular ...., if it was a blog post, broke the link http -> httpx.

Site has been linked before on the forums. I've gone through a couple now and intentionally broke those links. It's been around for quite some time, the domain was created in 1985. No activity in the wayback machine before 2004.

Well, that's awkward. I did link to that site here ( https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/freebsd-15-bridges-vlans-and-jails-nice.101719/post-773229 ). It never crossed my mind an AI may be the author.

Just to make sure: I assume devd isn't disabled in /etc/rc.conf (devd_enable="N0" ). Next what you can try is to start the devd daemon in debug mode as described in the wiki, activate USB tethering on the phone, compare what is printed on...

shutdown_splash doesn't show the default or custom .png image on my laptop either. Instead the built-in white logo with "FreeBSD" brand beneath it is displayed.

I see from the forums search results, it's not your first time dealing with splash. The answer is no. It's not possible (on currently supported FreeBSD versions). All you get at best is a boot splash screen with some console messages at the end...

So what did they do now that has source code helping out if they released it?

The SYNCDHCP option fix the issue #/etc/rc.conf ifconfig_re0="SYNCDHCP" ifconfig_re0_alias0="inet 192.168.1.100 netmask 255.255.255.255" ifconfig_re0_alias1="inet 192.168.1.101 netmask 255.255.255.255" ...

I need multiple IP on my homelab server with this configuration: #/etc/rc.conf ifconfig_re0="DHCP" ifconfig_re0_alias0="inet 192.168.1.100 netmask 255.255.255.255" ifconfig_re0_alias1="inet 192.168.1.101 netmask 255.255.255.255"...

What does Sony have that's relevant? I might entertain PSVR2 depending on how it compares to Index, but I don't need a console for that :p I feel Xbox Live is more for competitive gaming like CoD vs PSN feeling more like a requirement tacked-on...
