    hi there, i’m /boot/kernel.GENERIC. you may know me as /boot/kernel, but i’ve moved to a cool new location!i love being here because it solves a lot of problems for users like you, such as “how the fuck do i set $KERNCONF properly when building a single kernel?”look for me in FreeBSD 16.0 any day now! * **(and don’t forget to say hi to my new friend, “automatically created /boot/kernel compatibility symlink”.)* offer only applicable to pkgbase users** subject to bikeshed painting #freebsd

    let's do some user research into #FreeBSD!have you heard of the “misc/terminfo-db" port? do you usually/often install this port on your FreeBSD systems?

    Don't be a fool (like I was) when it comes to #jails on #FreeBSD. I ignored them despite using FreeBSD for decades, because I had no problem that could not be solved w/o them and thought "why learn yet another technology I barely need".But it's not only about solving problems. It gives you a super lightweight and fast tool to test things (and trashing 🗑️ them with zfs destroy) without cluttering your configs or interfering with production services.E.g. I hesitated to run a webserver for publishing content because I didn't want a publicly accessible Apache on my mail relays, nor on my Nextcloud instance at home.With jails, the MX is left unmodified. If I feel like it I could move it to a different system just using tar or cpio or zfs send.All I needed to accomplish that was a few shell scripts to initially generate a jail template and, of course, the invaluable book "FreeBSD Mastery: Jails" of @mwl .What motivated me to get started? All thespeakers at #EuroBSDCon showing what incredible things they do with Jails. Especially >>IMUNES: A Network Emulation and Simulation Tool Built on FreeBSD<<.If you want to watch the IMUNES talk you can find the link on my jailed webserver 😉 here https://pub.v32bis.cc/eurobsdcon.html
