Well, I actually recently tried to use #NomadBSD (based off of FreeBSD) as I heard it can be installed on a USB stick and has persistent storage. But I tried doing that and the thing would not boot because some entry is missing or something (don't remember what specific error). And that even with downloading from their official website.

Here's a nice video on NomadBsd.

Me autorrespondo, para aclararme.

Sí, #NomadBSD :nomadbsd: permite la instalación del #SistemaOperativo en una unidad de almacenamiento local (disco rígido mecánico tradicional o unidad de estado sólido), pero es que ni siquiera destacan esto en el sitio web. Y el hecho de que su imagen la distribuyan en IMG y no en #ISO, creo que le resta la posibilidad de popularizar NomadBSD.

Como punto a favor, NomadBSD es la variante de #FreeBSD más cercana al usuario doméstico. Y está en 32 y 64 bits. 😎

Qué oportunidad se están perdiendo tanto los de #MidnightBSD como los de #NomadBSD… Qué papeloneros… :skype_facepalm:

Octubre está a la vuelta de la esquina, y estos perejiles pretenden que un usuario hogareño instale un sistema operativo «artesanalmente» vía línea de comando o sin imagen ISO siquiera.

2025, papá. :tgchecks:

No pretendan que el usuario hogareño se adapte al sistema operativo; es exactamente al revés. ¿O por qué se piensan que macOS sigue aumentando su cuota de mercado? 🤨

Yep, I get it. #NomadBSD is definitely a recommendation for newbies who just want to give BSD a spin.

I've been very happy with #OpenBSD on my writing machine for over a year now.

I'd like to try #FreeBSD on my home desktop again sometime. The only reason I prefer OpenBSD to it is that it tends to do S3 suspend/resume faster. Oh, and it has X11 working out of the box after install. ;)

pues si de momento me quedo aqui (por que se puede ejecutar desde un pendrive), en un ordenador que tiene instalado windows10 y que uso para juegos.. (pero yo necesito (amo) la terminal 🙂 ).... y de momento aqui me quedo....

@tripplehelix

I'm guessing you're taking about #FreeBSD.

Both #NetBSD and #OpenBSD give you a working #X11 immediately after install.

#NomadBSD even gives you #xfce

#FreeBSD got some well deserved mainstream coverage yesterday when the YouTube channel ExplainingComputers released a video about FreeBSD on the desktop - or to be more accurate: about FreeBSD desktop derivatives: #GhostBSD #NomadBSD #MidnightBSD #HelloSystem

#Poll: are you "dog-fooding" #BSD?

Unlike previous polls (:BlobCatBlush:) I have tried really hard to make sure the options make sense. Select the lowest item in the list that is true for you:

Of the ten options, the first four are for those that don't use BSD regularly (let's say at least once per week).
The fifth option ("VPN/server") is for someone who uses BSD on a server they manage, but don't have physical access to.
The sixth ("at work") through eighth ("secondary laptop/desktop") is for those who regularly use some variant of BSD, but not as a primary daily driver.
The ninth and tenth options are for "dog-fooding"

Oh, right, and I'm sorry, but it really must need be said: MacOS, iOS, and other Apple products do not count. Sorry again. I will count any FOSS BSD-like OSes like #OpenIndiana, though.
I will also count retro commercial Unixes, if you're actually daily-driving them. ;)

I wonder if Asahi Linux could be re-imagined as Asahi BSD?

@GreyLinux Have you tried NomadBSD? It'll try to get graphics working with its installer. #nomadbsd

@chris I recommend you try #GhostBSD and/or #NomadBSD. You can try it as a live CD. If you like it, it is possible to install it on disk. They offer a turnkey desktop experience.
GhostBSD can also download and install drivers from the internet if you have an Nvidia GPU.
