On a fresh install of 11.1, something is preventing the FreeBSD repository from being enabled. I'm extremely new to GhostBSD and FreeBSD as well. Is there a way to manually enable the FreeBSD repo? I'm completely comfortable attacking the issue in the CLI. I just don't know how to attack it.

If you want to use FreeBSD repos install FreeBSD, GHostBSD is made to work on GhostBSD repos.
