this
kind of machine, but I would rather use some variant of BSD if that
is a
viable alternative.
Only used FreeBSD (and several Linux variations and Windows varieties)
on my Macbook Pro, but none of these as the boot operating system. All
of these do however run as expected in a virtual environment like
Parallels.
I would therefore like to ask you whether anyone here has any
experience
with FreeBSD, either 7.0-RELEASE or any other version, that they would
like to share so I might know what to expect if I choose to go through
with this. I have some time on my hands the next couple of weeks, so I
am prepared to spend some days tweaking things to work if it is worth
the effort, but if it isn't, I might as well take Ubuntu for a spin or
do a clean install of Mac OS X.
