It was a great success at OSCON and Linux World. Especially at Linux World, where we were happy to see all the linux laptops rebooted to FreeBSD as people checked it out ;-) Since the iso is less than 48mb, it's pretty skimpy but we managed to get blackbox with the opera browser on there so you can still do quite a bit with it. This is a live cd, so it doesn't install anything on the hard drive. It's great for somebody that wants to give FreeBSD a try or to carry in your wallet/purse. http://www.offmyserver.com/bsdlive Cheers, -matt ---- Matt Olander Chief Technology Officer, OffMyServer, Inc.

Will do, thanks ;-) Seth, can you also post the image that we use for the business card CD's to the bsdlive page? That way, somebody can edit it and print up labels if they want. > I'll have to see what mini blanks cost in the shops, & then keep a > couple in wallet to give away periodically) We got the cd's and labels at www.labelgear.com but I'm sure there's a million places to buy them from.

MO> http://www.offmyserver.com/bsdlive I wonder why there too little FreeBSD-based LiveCD projects are known to community and PR-ed outside of it. I've using one FreeBSD LiveCD, named Frenzy, and found it _very_ useful. Reading about "great success" oà BSDLive, I expect that Frenzy will be a sensation :) Frenzy, "a portable sysadmin's toolkit", is a 200 Mb geom_ugz-compressed LiveCD ISO image (600 Mb unpacked) fitting on one mini-CD disk; no HDD required for operation. When Frenzy boots, it creates required memory disks, automatically detects and mounts HDD partitions (UFS, FAT16/32, NTFS, EXT2FS are supported). It also mounts FreeBSD swap space as Frenzy swap, if found. If you wish you can create a swap file on mounted partitions. There is also an automatical mouse type detection (PS/2, serial, USB). If you want X, Frenzy will autoconfigure it for you, on first typing "startx". Configured fluxbox and Opera are also present :) All settings (read: made/changed user files) can be saved and loaded from/to floppy or USB flash. Developer scripts used to build ISO image are also present on disk (open source all-in-one). Although Frenzy is mostly dedicated for sysadmins and other technical guys (it was named the best hacker's LiveCD in one article i've read), it contains several applications for "normal" use, including AbiWord, XMMS and MPlayer. For example, last time I've used Frenzy was to help my friend. He was temporarily sitting with fully-operable machine, but without hard-disk. He is inexperienced (typical home) user, using computer mostly for entertainment purposes, heared something about Linux and scared by "all these months of configuration". After brief lecture and few typing by me he was given a nice GUI, and in short time he learned how to mount Windoze shares on the network, then seeing films in MPlayer and listening audio in XMMS. He was impressed by 4 dektops :) anâ said that audio quality was better than on Windoze. He decided to try and install for learning one of unix-like systems in the future, more preferably FreeBSD. Good result, I thought that time :) More information: http://frenzy.org.ua (http://frenzy.org.ua/eng/ for english text) -- Best regards, Vadim Goncharov ICQ UIN 166852181 mailto:vadim_nuclight@mail.ru From owner-freebsd-advocacy@FreeBSD.ORG Tue Aug 30 20:39:53 2005 Return-Path: X-Original-To: freebsd-advocacy@freebsd.org Delivered-To: freebsd-advocacy@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id C24B216A41F for ; Tue, 30 Aug 2005 20:39:53 +0000 (GMT) (envelope-from sethk@knight.ixsystems.net) Received: from knight.ixsystems.net (afg.ixsystems.net [206.40.55.73]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6832E43D45 for ; Tue, 30 Aug 2005 20:39:53 +0000 (GMT) (envelope-from sethk@knight.ixsystems.net) Received: from knight.ixsystems.net (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by knight.ixsystems.net (8.12.10/8.11.6) with ESMTP id j7UKB3gs078431; Tue, 30 Aug 2005 13:11:03 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from sethk@knight.ixsystems.net) Received: (from sethk@localhost) by knight.ixsystems.net (8.12.10/8.12.9/Submit) id j7UKB3p9078430; Tue, 30 Aug 2005 13:11:03 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from sethk) Date: Tue, 30 Aug 2005 13:11:03 -0700 From: Seth Kingsley To: Matt Olander Message-ID: <20050830131103.B74837@knight.ixsystems.net> References: <200508302008.j7UK8dZn020556@fire.jhs.private> <54CD342A-413F-4615-8A8B-2DCC6225D126@offmyserver.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.2.5.1i In-Reply-To: <54CD342A-413F-4615-8A8B-2DCC6225D126@offmyserver.com>; from matt@offmyserver.com on Tue, Aug 30, 2005 at 01:12:47PM -0700 X-Mailman-Approved-At: Wed, 31 Aug 2005 12:05:00 +0000 Cc: freebsd-advocacy@freebsd.org, sethk@offmyserver.com, "Julian H.

This causes long discussions, but no article. In case you do not want to write an English article, which I will translate, I'll try to find an author outside of the FreeBSD team.
