The old FreeBSD master Vi was praised by many sysadmins for his perfect understanding of FreeBSD and pure life.
Once some youngster decided to test master Vi's knowledge and asked him: "Tell me, oh Master, how did you configure your servers?"
Master Vi answered: "I don't really know".
Disappointed youngster returned to his own master and told him: "Master Vi is just a pretentious old man, he doesn't know anything. I know every configuration file in all of my Linux installations".
His Master gave him a slap upside the head and said: "Master Vi configured his servers when these mountains were still young and this river was but a small spring. He never needed this knowledge again, because his servers have worked flawlessly ever since. This is why his understanding is perfect".

Ok, so check this out. I raved about how magical #FreeBSD #linuxulator is, but it gets even better! In my Ubuntu linux jail, I downloaded the source for the #mobian kernel, installed cross-compiling tools, compiled the kernel and modules, copied to an sdcard, and booted up the kernel on my #pinephonepro 🤯 So, on my amd64 FreeBSD, I used a translation layer to load up Ubuntu Linux, used it to cross-compile a Linux kernel for arm64, and booted that up on a device! How unbelievable is that?!?

OpenZFS is great and it comes with awesome features. But for newbies or even users who don’t use all the features every day, it can be sometimes a little bit overwhelming.

The FreeBSD foundation has generously created an OpenZFS cheat cheat covering all the basic stuff that is important in daily use.

Great work and worth sharing!

Yep, I get it. #NomadBSD is definitely a recommendation for newbies who just want to give BSD a spin.

I've been very happy with #OpenBSD on my writing machine for over a year now.

I'd like to try #FreeBSD on my home desktop again sometime. The only reason I prefer OpenBSD to it is that it tends to do S3 suspend/resume faster. Oh, and it has X11 working out of the box after install. ;)

#GoodMorning, good #tzag, and happy #Caturday! :calicat2:

Home alone this morning as A meets up with her daughter and some friends for a day out. All fed with breakfast, but still more #coffee to drink. :flan_coffee: Gonna focus on setting up that Piwigo gallery on #FreeBSD via a host provider, once I decide on which one to go with. :flan_hacker: :runbsdBg:

As for the Big Guy, here's a pic of him from yesterday before I fired up the grill. He loves being outside. :flan_cat:

Ronnie, a grey and white Japanese bobtail cat, laying down on top of our wooden table and looking back towards the camera. Our pallet patio sofa can be seen in the distance.
