From what I checked the iohyve puts disk images as ZFS zvol volumes like: - /dev/zvol/zroot/iohyve/VMNAME/disk0 So the migration would be: - create your new VM with disk of the same size - check your new VM dis

Thank You - I will check that out. If it will work out I will update the article and maybe even probably add another dedicated virt-manager/libvirt Bhyve article. Regards, vermaden

Both BTRFS and XFS write support is supported by 'sysutils/fusefs-lkl' on FreeBSD. No need to port anything. ZFS is superior to BTRFS - first of all its safe and secure - I do not know how many more years wil ltake BTRFS to f

Yes ... and the future is bright. I have been using FreeBSD for almost two decades now (and still use it) both privately and professionally. I stared at 'dark' 5.x times with problematic SMP implementation and DragonflyBSD split.

I also would prefer that this split would not had place and that DragonflyBSD would never start ... but yet it happened ... so what? Recently (as a seasoned FreeBSD user/sysadmin) I tried DragonflyBSD to check how it went ... and it la

I use plain FreeBSD daily since almost two decades. After trying all available FreeBSD based Desktop Distros my conclusion is that GhostBSD is the best of them. Most complete and works out of the box. I also liked NomadBSD and helloSystem
