I setup my (decade) old laptop as a server running on FreeBSD. And the elaborate documentation is a real lifesaver, especially as someone who is new to the ecosystem. Even, for the obscure hardware specific setup (yea, looking at you sony vaio), I could find relevant information on their forum which interestingly had relevant information from ages ago.
Really great job guys and thank you! Can't wait to upgrade!
- akavel 8y agoCould you share what you found, by any chance? I've been having some trouble configuring GRUB for Linux on an old VAIO with UEFI (kinda works, but required weird workarounds and seems still flaky); I'm really interested in any success stories with booting OSes on their hardware.
