In my car of using it hardware support. Freebsd just chokes on the data controller in using and solaris and it's flavors didn't even detect it. Along with that freebsd doesn't yet support the virtualization tech that I need to give real pcie hardware to a VM.
- crest 9y agoThe bhyve hypervisor does support PCI-e passthrough.
- simcop2387 9y agoNot VGA passthrough though, which is needed for doing most ML and gaming tasks.
- X86BSD 9y agoDo you just buy pre made boxes? Im curious because I have never put boxes in service I did not spec and put together myself. For exactly this reason. You want to make sure the HW is supported by your OS. I didn't think anyone just grabbed a box and tried to install multiple OS'es on it to see which worked. That seems genuinely like a poor idea and way to do things.
- simcop2387 9y agoNo, I built this myself and the hardware is supported on my OS of choice. I tried FreeBSD on it recently to deal with an issue I had on ZFS (was related to a bug in ZoL during bad hardware failure).
