bsdnews.com – what’s happening?
bsdnews.com has been down for a few weeks now. Does anybody know the reason and if we’re going to see the site online again? Is it just a matter of upgrading the website or has the service gone down for good?
Continue reading...gotbsd.net for BSD torrents
18. March 2008
There’s a great BSD torrent website that I want to bring to your attention. It’s gotbsd.net where you can download FreeBSD 7.0, PC-BSD 1.5 and FreeSBIE 2.0.1 CD images via the Bittorrent protocol. This site was originally started in 2007 shortly after the FreeBSD Project took their official server off-line. We originally ran on a dedicated [...]

16. October 2007
It looks like people want it , so I think it is a really good idea. I must admit I’ve not a lot of time to work on it, so I’ll probably end up using the same configuration of FreeSBIE-2.0.1 The great news is unionfs will be enabled by default, like in FreeSBIE-1.x. The only caveat is: [...]

To be able to watch Adobe Flash animations and videos on BSD systems, has been not too easy so far. This is caused by Adobe not releasing a (Free)BSD version of Flash, but only a (closed source) version for Windows and Linux. In order to watch Flash content on BSD one has to install the [...]
