OK by now anyone contemplating trying a Linux Kernel Based OS is familiar with the concept of a LiveCD, and sadly most of the BSD distributions out there lack this functionality as so far the progression to BSD based OS's was Windows - Linux - BSD well some people in the FreeBSD community where not satisfied by this so they went out an made one based on FreeBSD. Directly taken from there FAQ.

What operating system is FreeSBIE based on ?

It is based on the FreeBSD operating system
What are the goals of the project ?

Our goals are mainly two:
- To develop a suite of programs to be used to create your own CD, with all the personalizations you like
- To make various ISO images available, maybe each one with its different goals and possible uses.

FreeSBIE.

I will encouridge any one who is not ready to install BSD on a computer to try this and just see how awsome BSD is.

[oldskool]

I am DL'ing this as I type this, thanks mate !

[Saxon]

Not a problem mate, at the moment you can't directly install from the live CD but that will change.

[oldskool]

Chris, I have tried it twice and both times the system freezes up. I may have to do an MD5 check, I didn't against my better judgement.

[Saxon]

It's working fine for me, is it just a general lock up or is there something else at work is it giving you any specific errors?

[oldskool]

It looks like it will boot all the way up and then ...... stops and goes no further. The second time I tried this it booted up to the little text-version of the BSD devil dude. Thought it was going to boot all the way. No, I don't recall any specific error messages, but I can try again and pay closer attention.

[Saxon]

If you don't mind my old chum, if it is a specific error I might be able to find a solution for you.

[oldskool]

Well the next time I try it I will let you know, and thank you. Right now I am up way late, woke up in the night, got on here and now I am ready for bed again. But when I do try it again I will let you know.
