Hybrid ISO for testing.

Post by ericbsd »

Eh guys we got an Hybrid ISO out for testing, this is a pre release of GhostBSD 10.1 BETA2, we did not release it yet, we have more work to do, but this is for none official testing release. We did some minor kernel change in hope to fix some ATI and Intel GPU issue, more change is to come.

With the hybrid ISO you can burn to DVD or put it to a USB.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/ghostbs ... 2-i386.iso

Code: Select all

dd if=GhostBSD10.1-BETA2-i386.iso of=/dev/da0 bs=1M 
http://sourceforge.net/projects/ghostbs ... -amd64.iso

Code: Select all

dd if=GhostBSD10.1-BETA2-amd64.iso of=/dev/da0 bs=1M

I downloaded the i386 ISO and installed B2 under Virtualbox. Only strange thing I noticed was that when booting is that you get to a Log In screen and have to press Enter before you get to the desktop to be able to do the install.

hi fmh,

I believe this is a very specific PCDM issue, from my tests it is not that you need to press Enter from keyboard, it is that the firsts two or three mouse clicks get "eaten", a fourth click usually work for me.

I say specific to PCDM, because PCBSD show a similar behavior.

Also, this apply to both, i386 and amd64 versions.

IT is not PCDM the problem, it is the VirtualBox integration the problem.

I have seen the Virtualbox pop ups too on real hardware. I don't recall though on my Dell if I am running 10.1 i386 B1 or B2 but the Virtualbox warnings do occur at boot up.

when you are running on real hardware simply remove the "additions"

Code: Select all

sudo pkg remove virtualbox-ose-additions
