Re: Ghost for PPC?

Hey Eric, I could certainly try to build MATE on FreeBSD on my G3. But I must warn you that I am technologically retarded. Back in the day when I first started using Linux I would experiment with commands from a Linux for Dummies book for Corel Linux. Since then Linux has gotten so "user friend...

Ghost for PPC?

Just wondering. I, like probably millions of others have an old G3 with Tiger 10.4.11 on it. Which like all other PPC and older OSs Apple has abandoned. I know that FreeBSD and NetBSD have a version for my dinosaur. So I couldn't help but wonder how much effort would be involved in creating a GhostB...

One is a 40 gig Western Digital and the other a 4 gig flashdrive, both are working just fine. I will be upgrading to the new 3.5 very...

Hi, I was really excited to see the new update and burned it. The live cd loaded fine. But when I got to the sign in screen Im informed that the password for GhostBSD user is ghostbsd.

Re: Updates crash in lxde

Ok. Thanks Eric. Whenever you get around to it is just fine. It's not that critical at the moment because I most just blog and surf. So whenever you get a chance.. I'm not going anywhere lol.

Updates crash in lxde

Hey folks, I've been using Ghost on my old laptop now for a few months and haven't really had many issues at all until I tried to update the packages I added after the original install. For reasons unknown the installer now crashes after I select, but not until I go to execute the update. I'm reason...
