Off topic: wish there was a slim variant of FreeBSD.
Seems like all past attempts have stalled and/or are dependent upon FreeBSD creating a standard for what’s in a minimal userspace .
- CameronNemo 4y agoEven further off topic but perhaps relevant: Chimera Linux, which consists of the FreeBSD user land ported to Linux. I wonder if q66 has OCI images published... https://chimera-linux.org/ https://chimera-linux.org/
- cperciva 4y agoOnce pkgbase lands we'll probably see more progress there.
- alberth 4y agoGiven that it's been in the works for what seems like a decade, do you think pkgbase will be finalized anytime soon? Just curious (please don't take my comments as being negative) https://wiki.freebsd.org/PkgBase https://wiki.freebsd.org/PkgBase
- cperciva 4y agoYou're quite right, and to be honest at this point I've given up trying to keep track of where it's at. It's definitely something I'd like to see completed, but I've been too busy with FreeBSD/EC2 and speeding up the boot process to spend time looking at pkgbase too.
