I have not played around on it a whole bunch, so I'm definitely not an expert. They really did a good job with it, PC-BSD has a more compelling visual experience. For a novice computer user it's a great way to have the experience of true Unix without ending up resorting to angry language on the mailing lists. For more experienced users it seems like it would be a robust platform for such as scientific research, medical systems developers, manufacturing control, process coordination and shop floor machine operation. On my Eee Pc Netbook I had some difficulty with the X configuration tool, which must be run in order to launch the desktop. I chose to install the Xfce desktop suite of the several choices available in the selection. The prompt display was pristine, yet the X test suffered some malfunction no matter which setting I tried. When I was able to launch the desktop, the display was off kilter and extremely difficult to navigate. This obstacle was overcome by manually updating the X configuration file. There are numerous resources available online for troubleshooting these kinds of problems. The system seems to be solid, so I'd be surprised if it offers the thrill of compiling your own operating system. But there are compiling tools available so one could presumably pull the source and do a build. Building a PBI package does indeed seem to be much more involved than making a package. A package build is straightforward and takes little effort to create a Makefile in the case that your intended software does not happen to already be in the ports collection. Also, the package system offers a way to easily synchronize software updates across many machines. After a package is built an

That would be something like mount -t YOUR_USB_HDD_FILE_SYSTEM /dev/YOUR_USB_HDD /usr/ports/distfiles. Also note that not only distfiles are required, your ports tree must be in sync with distfiles directory (same versions, names and sizes/checksumms).

Re: FreeBSD Install Problem
Not saying your suggestion won't work but… The last time I had to flip the SATA mode in a BIOS to Compatibility (sometimes labeled "Legacy" or "IDE" mode) was when I was installing FreeBSD-4.11 on an Intel S5000PSL/R. I don't think I've come across a machine that required me to change the SATA mode before installing FreeBSD 9. The OP may have said he tried sysinstall approaches but unless he specifically said he tried Druid, it actually implies he was comparing FreeBSD 8 media to FreeBSD 9's. This is naturally not a fair fight because both install media are using different kernels. That's why I recommend that you try a sysinstall based installer that's actually built from/for 9.0-RELEASE. It will boot with a 9.0 kernel and use sysinstall to automatically set up the system. Trying FreeBSD Druid will put the two installers (sysinstall v bsdinstall) on the same ground using the same kernel, so we'll be able to tell if its your hardware or the installer. -- Devin On Sep 7, 2012, at 11:46 PM, Dale Scott wrote: > Check the SATA drive mode in the BIOS.
