Heard that before, I am just worried about hardware support, I have to admit.
I really am not keen on manually downloading and loading kernel drivers. :( And I plan to start installing stuff on fairly random old laptops.
Do you have any extended experience with installing FreeBSD on all sorts of machines?
- lmm 3y agoI wouldn't say extended. I've switched to it on a couple of random machines I had (notably never AMD/ATI graphics because I always found their drivers bad even on windows/linux) and it's been fine there, shrug.
- JohnFen 3y agoI'm planning on moving all of my machines to BSD at some point. I have a lot of them, and so it's an intimidating task that I've been procrastinating, but it is where I'll go eventually. The hardware support thing made me nervous at first, but I don't expect it to be a major issue. We'll see.
