Hello,
I updated FreeBSD 8.0 to 8.2 with freebsd-update.
Everything went fine till I got to the ports:
I used the commands:
# portupgrade -f ruby
# rm /var/db/pkg/pkgdb.db
# portupgrade -f ruby18-bdb
portupgrade -f ruby gave problems because of a security issue.
So I updated the ports with

I need to implement a tape drive backup solution at my place of work. I was
wondering what is a good tape drive to get for this task, that works on freebsd
with something like amanda. Its for a small business, and storing about 4TB
max, and hopefully with some room spare for differential

Hi David,

What compiler and what optimizations? Most compilers will optimize a
printf without any special formatting into a puts call instead of a
printf call.
For example clang -O3 -fomit-frame-pointer (which I use for clarity

Hello,
Ever since I upgraded to 8.2 a few weeks ago, I can't seem to rebuild my
kernel without it being built with ZFS v14 rather than v15. This is a
problem because I'm using root on ZFS and my box won't boot after the kernel
Thank you for responding.
For two reasons I know it's running zfs v14 after the rebuild:
1) During boot, a message shows:
ZFS Filesystem version 4
ZFS Storage pool version 14
2) After getting to the failed root mount point of the boot (after it
fails to mount my zfs root), I enter:

I've always heard PC-BSD is the way to go on the desktop, so if that's not
going too well then I'm not sure.
I don't think there is a BSD that Paris and Jessica would be able to install.
Then again, that's not really what made them noteworthy.

There is no distro in BSDworld. BSD family is complete operating system.
