version 7
Things to remember when bootstrapping a fresh install of FreeBSD outside of sysinstall
Boot Setup
Regular
/boot/loader.conf
loader_logo="beastie" kernel="GENERIC" opensolaris_load="YES" # if zfs root zfs_load="YES" # if zfs root
Tweaks if /boot is its own partition
# Boot scripts are hardcoded to look in /boot so make sure they can find everything # Have to move the bootcode out of the way for this to work, though cd /path/to/new/boot && mv boot boot.blk && ln -svf . boot
/boot/boot.config
/loader
/boot/loader.conf
vfs.root.mountfrom="ufs:/dev/ufs/root" vfs.root.mountfrom="zfs:zpool/filesystem" # if zfs root
Tweaks if using serial console
/boot/boot.config
-h -S115200 /loader -h -S115200 # if /boot is its own partition
/boot/loader.conf
console="comconsole,vidconsole" # or just comconsole, if there is no useful video hardware comconsole_speed="115200" boot_multicons="YES" # pass -D to kenv (boot -D) boot_serial="YES" # pass -h to kenv (boot -h)
System configuration
/etc/fstab
- Pretty obvious
/etc/rc.conf
hostname="hostname.domain.tld" ifconfig_<adapter>="<config>" sshd_enable="YES" # Unless you really want a deaf box zfs_enable="YES" # To auto-mount zfs filesystems; most useful when using ZFS root
/etc/ttys
- Enable serial line, if using serial
/etc/localtime
- Link to or copy from the appropriate file in /usr/share/zoneinfo
/etc/group
pw groupadd users -g 1000
/etc/passwd
Coming soon
