BSD Challenge

Ah well, I’ve been meaning to setup Project Trident on my desktop for a while. I have a spare SSD for boot and 2 X 2TB disks waiting for ZFS. Trident has the Nvidia 390 driver ready so this should be an easy install. I lasted 6 months on PC BSD a few years ago and Trident is the TrueOS follow on.

MacOS is a Unix OS, apple paid up so it’s all official. @AnotherDev has left the challenge open for abuse by saying any Unix. Sloppy, very sloppy :sunglasses:

I found a guy who is using OpenBSD, and uses all the stuff I want to use under Linux on it… he even riced it

Now I can really join, I’ll throw it on one of my Thinkpads… or the server…

I’ve got BSD on my home router, but that would be cheating. I’ll try installing something on my G5 maybe.

Soon™, since it should be pretty much the same under BSD as it is under Linux (I can learn 2 things at once!!!)

Gimme a week, pretty busy now

macOS back in the tiger days was one of only a few platforms to have official UNIX certification.
