Congratulations!

@alephoto85 Here's what I do.Use the installer. Create a 32GB root partition. Don't create any other partitions.After the install has finished, use gpt, cgdconfig, and newfs. Create a big encrypted file system. Replace the entry of /home and other directories you consider important in the root filesystem with symlinks to the encrypted one.

I've been running Linux since 1993 and to this day, I'm still learning. It's what I love so much about running Linux and FOSS. I can't even imagine what it would be like to be stuck running only a proprietary OS or apps.I've also been running FreeBSD on and off for years, but that's about to change to running FreeBSD daily. Not replacing Linux, but running it along with Linux.Sorry, just a simple appreciation post for FOSS, all the projects, and most importantly, all of the folks who devote their time to developing this wonderful software.#foss #linux #freesoftware #bsd #freebsd

Happy Weekend! In a few hours, Open Source Conference 2026 Japan in #Nagoya will be held at the Fukiage Hall in Chikusa Ward:https://event.ospn.jp/osc2026-nagoya/One of their talks is from the Nagoya #BSD Users Group, and seems to target #NetBSD in particular. That sounds pretty awesome, and definitely one of the ones I'm going to attend.https://event.ospn.jp/osc2026-nagoya/session/2296979I wonder what the chances are I'll find anyone from Fedi in there? Anyone feeling like dropping by "boring city" on a Saturday? :P#OSC2026 #OpenSource #Conference

Seven years of running FreeBSD on ThinkPads alongside Linux — lessons I'd give my younger self<https://www.reddit.com/r/freebsd/comments/1tedyva/seven_years_of_running_freebsd_on_thinkpads/>＂I daily-drive Linux at work and FreeBSD on my personal ThinkPads (T480 & P52 currently). Both laptops and both operating systems, every day. I'm the kind of person who reads freebsd-update output and Phoronix benchmarks in the same hour.＂Recently saw the "is FreeBSD really that goated" thread and it brought back the timeline of my own journey. Started with a rough —call it version 0.9 — build that barely had X11 working, evolved through five iterations, landed on something I'd call "production-stable personal desktop" around version 2.0 on FreeBSD 15.0 with a heavily customized MATE, ZFS boot environments, BastilleBSD jails for microservices, WireGuard tunnels and PF.＂If I could send a packet back in time to my earlier self, here's what I'd put in the payload: …＂The image here is for <https://www.reddit.com/r/freebsd/comments/1tedyva/comment/om1t5mg/> because we can all agree that em dashes make scintillating conversation.#goated #X11 #Wales #FreeBSD #BSD #Linux #ZFS #OpenZFS #Beastie #daemon #MyLittlePony #unicorn #dolphin #rainbow #IBM #Lenovo #BastilleBSD #WireGuard #AI #purple

Happy to share that #BoxyBSD remains up!Recently I got asked about my @BoxyBSD@bsd.cafe project, which offers free VPS instances of vary #BSD based systems for learning and educational purposes and I'm happy to share that this projects remains available. Several things could finally be clarified to continue this service to make sure people can learn and practice on real #FreeBSD, #OpenBSD, #NetBSD systems to #RUNBSD. Also, BoxyBSD starts moving over to #Sylve on #bhyve.But not only that! We could also get some more new resources and locations to scale and this also brings up another new project for #free Linux #VPS instances at https://boxedtux.com (Fedi: @BoxedTux@mastodon.social) where people will be able to learn and practice on different #Linux based distributions (e.g., #Debian, #Ubuntu, #Rocky,...). BoxedTux utilizes #Proxmox clusters as a foundation.Hope you like this small update... Over & out!#freeVPS #VPS #VM #Hosting #education #learning #learningplatform #service #opensource #BoxedTux
