@CiotBSD excellent, tyvm for the share! Yeah Solene's articles have been quite helpful for me the last few years as I transition more workloads to OpenBSD.
I've heard she has since moved onto other projects and I am thankful for all the OpenBSD content she has left for the community.
Great work! I've always manually set up OpenBSD (I remember desktop-installer but I don't think it supported what I wanted before). Will definitely try this on my Dell Inspiron I'm installing OpenBSD on this week :)
I got into IT right around the liberation of the SunOS source code. I unfortunately never had a chance to play with SPARC systems but if I find an affordable system I'd play with Illumos or OpenBSD on it. I spent some time reviewing the SPARC ISA (which was based).
@grahamperrin Codeberg is giving 502s :') I'll check again later as I'm interested in seeing what this commit adds :eyes:.
I'd say whoever thinks OpenBSD is slopware needs to review their own tech stack. I've been reviewing the source tree for a couple years now and it has made me a much better (and safer) C hacker. I also finally understand what a sane .conf file should look like, too.
Thanks to everyone who pointed out Linux. Now that I'm paying attention this is clearly the
systemdstartup logging. :face_palm:@CiotBSD excellent, tyvm for the share! Yeah Solene's articles have been quite helpful for me the last few years as I transition more workloads to OpenBSD.

I love this quote. Hear hear
Hear, hear
Always a great read from Miod, thanks for the updates!

et voila
Thanks for the work on
desktop-installer@izder456 :) I'll update the PR with my experience when I get a chancee: retake screenshot
e: I added a comment in the PR thread :+1:

I can't provide a roadmap, but something that helped me was to review the code for
axe(4), the driver for my ethernet dongle.I'm also interested in learning more about writing device drivers on OpenBSD. Some useful links I've reviewed before:

It's been arguably the most valuable resource. Vultr guides are also worth checking out! (I used it to help deploy a self-hosted email server)
Welcome back to OpenBSD. A lot of new features are worth checking out (
vmm(4),pf(4), etc.)
