Playing FreeBSD discovery is really tiring. I believe that the following questions are the first time to play FreeBSD have encountered:
- Installation system By default only text mode, need to manually install Gnome,kde and other desktop environment.
- FreeBSD installs, upgrades the software two ways: ports,pkg, how to use?
- How virtual machines Install the VMware Tools Enhanced experience
- FreeBSD provides DVD image, how to install software directly from the mirror, to avoid the installation of Pkg install is slow
- How FreeBSD uses shared folders to access the contents of Windows
First share a FreeBSD Official Handbook, do not make the highly recommended first look at this:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/
As handbook on how to install FreeBSD, how to use ports and pkg, how to install xorg and KDE desktop, the common use of the system, are introduced. Refer to this generally enough.
Handbook mentioned a Pcbsd, for too many ways to install KDE through text mode trouble, you can download this version of the experience directly, I have not tried, have tried to share.
Pcbsd Link: http://www.pcbsd.org/
The following is a summary of the problems encountered by the individual trial, even if the handbook of some additions:
- General Command Overview (only for FreeBSD specific)
Install the Software:
Pkg for Binary package management:pkg install Subversion, where subversion is the software name.
Ports collection:cd/usr/ports/devel/subversion; Make install clean
To view the software:
Pkg for Binary package management:pkg info Subversion
Ports Collection:make Search name=subversion need to be explained is that before execution, need to cd/usr/src; make index
- How to install KDE from text mode
Handbook has been introduced in more detail, see: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/x11.html
- How virtual machines Install the VMware Tools Enhanced experience
The following links are better, see: http://tutorialforlinux.com/2014/02/03/how-to-install-vmware-tools-on-freebsd-10-x-amd64-easy-guide/
- FreeBSD provides DVD image, how to install software directly from the mirror, to avoid the installation of Pkg install is slow
The DVD image is first described as the following type of Image:
?
After the ISO image is loaded, follow these steps to install it:
- Mount the image to a local directory
Mkdir-p/dist
Mount-t cd9660/dev/cd0/dist
- The system automatically obtains the software from the/dist directory to install
env Repos_dir=/dist/packages/repos Pkg Install xorg
env Repos_dir=/dist/packages/repos Pkg Install gnome2
- How FreeBSD uses shared folders to access the contents of Windows
When you want to send a file under Windows to FreeBSD, other methods can be taken into consideration in this way.
Direct with Command
Mount_smbfs-i windowsip//[email protected]/shared folder/mnt
Where-I follows the IP address of the Windows host, username is a user with access to shared resources, typically administrator,computername is the Windows computer name, replaced with your actual parameters.
Where the shared folder is a shared folder created under Windows.
Once mounted, just like your own folder, you can do it.
Uninstall: umount/mnt
?
Finally, relax and share my results:
