Dendrobatus Azureus<p>Finally I've captured some sh photographs of the running minimal freeBSD system </p><p>No x.org here. Even mc can't run after the pkg install! It needs proc filesystems installed mounted cfg first </p><p>I was surprised that I now need to read documents to find out how my second HDMI IPS LED display can be turned on in text mode, something that happens automatically in Linux out of the box 🎁 </p><p>🖋️ <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/bash" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bash</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/freeBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>freeBSD</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/boxyBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>boxyBSD</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/sh" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sh</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/zsh" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>zsh</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/ksh" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ksh</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/csh" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>csh</span></a>&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/netBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>netBSD</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/openBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>openBSD</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/POSIX" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>POSIX</span></a></p>
Dendrobatus Azureus<p>As you can see here the first part of my freeBSD installation is going smoothly</p><p>My 2.5GBit NIC it's not supported but my Wi-Fi NIC is properly supported so everything is good, so far </p><p>I've just installed the free BSD handbook which requires the network so extra proof that my Wi-Fi NIC is working magnificently</p><p>What is also evident is that you should not ignore warnings that you're HDD set up will not boot. It turns out that the drive I used, which has an MBR, not GPT, is not usable in the configuration where I made a second partition / and a third partition /home, the installation goes smoothly but of course it doesn't boot and not surprising GRUB Linux, cannot find a way to make it boot.</p><p>So now I have to make a much smaller partition on a GPT USB SSD</p><p>It's wise to listen to the options of the installer. Using my GPT partitioned SATA SSD, mounted on a USB tray 📥 I was able to install freeBSD base config without a hitch, jumping into full blown tcsh mode</p><p>Extra images will follow in a minute</p><p>🖋️ <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/bash" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bash</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/freeBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>freeBSD</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/boxyBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>boxyBSD</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/sh" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sh</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/zsh" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>zsh</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/ksh" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ksh</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/csh" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>csh</span></a>&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/netBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>netBSD</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/openBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>openBSD</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/POSIX" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>POSIX</span></a></p>
