Week w/ PC-BSD - Day 4
So, Day 3 found me moving into my PC-BSD desktop. Overall, it wasn't a bad experience. I learned a few things about PC-BSD, and BSD generally, and found a few cool applications along the way.
Today the PC-BSD team put out an update to the PC-BSD 1.3, which is now is at 1.3.01. This is great, because it gave me a chance to use the Update Manager. The update fixes the installer issue that wiped some peoples data when installed to extended partitions, fixed HAL, and made some other changes.
I am pleased to report that it worked perfectly, updating the system quickly. I did the reboot, just to make sure it would do it, and everything was fine.
I also tried the portsnap utility again, to see if any of the fixes made a difference, and this time it updated! It should not have, unless there was an undocumented change somewhere. Anyway, I can report that the ports tree updated successfully.
And then the trouble started.
