I use Linux for mythtv though mythtv breaks and pisses me off often, in fact yesterday systemd on Ubuntu 15.04 broke it though I was going to boot from upstart anyway and look into openrc or the linux that begins with v? and has runit as pid1. I've recently switched from current to using the relatively new option of mtier and release simply because keeping firefox-esr which is required for the few sites that refuse to work with xombrero updated has a lower interruption rate on my current work and I haven't deployed puppet or something more automated yet. > Fuck the patch (is that what you wanted?), but treat me with a little respect. > > I will not reply to this topic any further. You could just add his mails to an email kill list. p.s. Once installed, all that you need to upgrade after 6 months is to verify bsd.rd and boot it from the boot prompt (a single cp command to add a kernel! to / with no modules) and you should create a short script from www.openbsd.org/upgrade??.html to generally remove stuff that has been removed from base. During the 6 months you can even use openup in a cron job to get security updates if you like. Updates are so infrequent I prefer to do so manually and test before rollout or during early hours. Packages that are used less by developers will actually be more reliable than in current but obviously newer fixes and the ability to get help with any issues come with current. p.p.s. food for thought, trusting a linux kernel, linux ;-) is a multiple faceted pain
