Has its development been stopped? FreeBSD is evolving at a fast pace.

I use nearly the MINIMAL config with NO_PAM, NO_KLDLOAD and NO_MODULES commented. Also, I use my minimal kernel which can boot my box. Now, the iso can boot with cd9660, geom_label, geom_uzip, geom_md added manually during loader time. However, I cannot login, and it shows an error with "login: in openpam_load_module(): no pam_unix.so found". I've checked the uzip/usr.uzip and found lots of pam_xxx.so including pam_unix.so in lib. Then I build a iso with NO_COMPRESSEDFS but still in vain. Do I miss anything ?

A few months ago the motherboard on my FreeBSD machine gave up, and I had no way of running Unix anymore (aside from my ancient Toshiba that runs OpenBSD). I’ve always liked Freesbie, but using it as a LiveCD and rebooting between it and XP is daunting. Googling for “linux usb” brought me to this site http://www.pendrivelinux.com/ . I tried most of the Linux distros they have on that site, however for some reason or another I was not satisfied, either it didn’t have gcc (damn small) or couldn’t connect to the internet (ubuntu). Then I remembered Freesbie and decided to give it a try, running it from a usb stick using Qemu. I followed the instructions for Ubuntu http://www.pendrivelinux.com/2008/01/11/run-ubuntu-710-from-windows/ And the only thing that I had to do was to replace the Ubuntu ISO image with the one of Freesbie. It feels pretty snappy with Kqemu acceleration driver installed. I can even store stuff on the stick; after running the mountdisks script, an ext2fs partition is mounted and I was able to save files on it and they were there the next time I started Freesbie. I am able to connect to the network. The only issue that I have is when running X (startx), the window is tiny (800 X 600 pixels I believe), but it’s not a big deal.

Since the import of xorg 7 in FreeBSD ports tree xconfig plugin does not work because getconfig is gone. After some research, I found a way to discover the right driver for VGA card with Xorg -probeonly. This is just a proof of concept, the patch is available at http://djdomics.free.fr/FreeBSD/freesbie2/patches/xconfig.sh.diff Comments are very welcome!

Some time ago, I was looking for a FreeBSD + GNOME live cd, but did not find any. [*] I decided to try to use the FreeSBIE scripts and build my own live cd with FreeBSD 7.0(-BETA2) and GNOME 2.20.. The result can be found here: http://gavare.se/freebsd-gnome-live-cd/ Maybe the modifications I made to the normal FreeSBIE scripts are not clean enough to be incorporated back into FreeSBIE itself, but I am posting this anyway. Perhaps someone finds it useful. Anders [*] Most FreeBSD live cds seem to use other desktop environments. Anders Gavare 2007-11-22T06:43:41 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.freebsd.freesbie/2713 Hi, Since the commit to src/sys/dev/ata ata-chipset.c atapi-cd.c atapi-cd.h by sos< at > [1] I'm unable to boot from a livecd build with freesbie2 (with RELENG_7). The system is unable to find the root filesystem and asks for manual specification [2] My kernel is a GENERIC plus GEOM_LABEL and GEOM_UZIP, a kernel build before the commit works as expected. Could someone take a look at this error ? Thanks, Regards.

Early in 2005 there was a btmgr floppy image posted to help with such situations, but the server (catseye.webhop.net) seems to no longer exist, and Google did not find any other instances. Does anyone know a place to find this image currently? perryh< at >pluto.rain.com 2007-10-26T09:07:13 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.freebsd.freesbie/2708 Hello, I am a GNU+Linux user and I have tried to use FreeSBIE to port a program of mine to FreeBSD. First of all: Thank you! Nearly all I needed was there, and I could get it going. But I came across one thing, which I think is a misconfiguration on the system. It's not a real problem, but an inconvenience. SDL has an own implementation for iconv. It can be configured to be a wrapper around the systems iconv implementation, or it has a weak fallback system. There is an iconv implementation in FreeSBIE, but SDL is configured not to use it. /usr/local/include/SDL/SDL_config.h: It defines HAVE_ICONV_H, but HAVE_ICONV is undefined. There are those different symbols, because there might be systems, which have the iconv functions, but not in iconv.h. But including iconv.h without actually using it, doesn't make much sense, I think. I don't use the real FreeBSD. How is it there? list< at >akfoerster.de 2007-10-22T08:53:09 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.freebsd.freesbie/2707 Hi, I want to create customized filesystems hierarchy in a flash disc. In the freesbie project, where can I change the scripts to handle that? I used the command "make flash" when making the deployment. Basically I want to populate the following filesystems in a flash disc: / /dev/md0 /tmp and put var in /tmp with the symlinks: /var -> /tmp/var I also want to get rid of the LABEL stuff in the fstab, and use a real device name eg. /dev/ad01a for example. Where can I make a change in the scripts/ or conf/ or extra/ directory to accomplish this customization? Thanks sam Sam Wun 2007-08-24T00:30:49 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.freebsd.freesbie/2706 Hello, until now I was using customroot/etc/skel/dot files in order to put configuration files for the user I put on my DVD. But it fails if the files are too larges (because etcmfs has a fixed size as I understand). It was a bad idea anyway because the files are in both /etc/skel and in /usr/home/user/. What is the best place for putting users config files for Freesbie ?
