Re: Fresh GhostBSD 21.01.20 installation fails on re-boot

Encrypt Installation or /home/user

Hello,

I want to migrate a laptop of a friend from ubuntu to GhostBSD. But it is important for him to encrypt his data, so I want to encrypt while install or later when creating new user.

How to do that easy way (if possible) and which encryption is best to recommend on GhostBSD?

Re: Installing Linux Packages

What Linux Apps do you want to run?

I prefer GhostBSD as daily driver over linux, but I wonder if it may be suitable for very new beginners as little knowledge about bsd is useful except you just want to run your apps and surf the web.
