This is great, now I can check if my cheap fringe laptop is usable with BSD. Been itching to switch for a while, but haven’t dared.

- cat199 7y agoThe major BSD derived operating systems all have 'live' boot media for installs - however this usually means CLI. That said, this should be enough to verify most HW compatibility. I say this because this is FreeBSD based, so you're not going to find out about OpenBSD or NetBSD compatibility this way.
- 1MachineElf 7y agoI'm excited too. Up until now, I've been relying on mfsBSD for this - and it only solves the problem for server-like platforms with nothing but the bare CLI. It's still great for SuperMicro's virtual CD-ROM over IPMI.
