<div dir="ltr">Hey folks!<div><br></div><div>I'm glad I came to the installfest in January! It was nice meeting everyone, and I want</div><div>to extend a big thanks to George for giving me a FreeBSD SD card for my Pi! I've been</div><div>playing with it on and off and learning a bit more about how the BSDs work under the hood!</div><div><br></div><div>No, I'm not leaving Linux behind, but learning BSD is beneficial! ;)</div><div><br></div><div>Anyways, I've thrown together an extra box with some spare parts over the weekend. The specs</div><div>aren't the greatest; it's a Core 2 Duo with 4GB RAM and only an Nvidia GeForce 6200 PCI card</div><div>for video (the motherboard is an Intel DG41MJ motherboard in Mini-ITX size), but I'm thinking</div><div>about installing a BSD onto it and learning more about the OS with it. That said, I'm deciding</div><div>between FreeBSD, PC-BSD, or even going with DragonflyBSD to study its Amiga-esque roots.</div><div><br></div><div>OpenBSD and NetBSD are off the list for now as I'm keeping those for older machines, and</div><div>OpenBSD may be going onto my old ThinkPad T42.</div><div><br></div><div>So what would be the best bet for my spare box?</div><div><br></div><div>Cheers!</div><div><br></div><div>--Robert</div><div><div><br></div>-- <br><div class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr">Nobody's ever lost in life...they're merely taking the scenic route.<br>==============================<br>Please avoid sending me Word or PowerPoint attachments.<br>See <a href="http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/no-word-attachments.html" target="_blank">http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/no-word-attachments.html</a><br>==============================<br>-----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK-----<br>Version: 3.1.2<br>GCS/S/M/MU d- s+: a34 C++(+++) UL++++>$ P++ L+++ E+ W+ N+ o+ K++ w--- O-<br>M !V PS+ PE Y+ PGP(+) t+ 5++ X++ R tv b+++ DI+++ D++(---) G++ e+ h-<br>r++ y+<br>------END GEEK CODE BLOCK------</div></div>
