how can i mine any crypto using freebsd?

A pick?

skered any

bsdcoin

If you mind bsdcoin you can trade it for one commit.

mine*

how i can do that in freebsd?

warsoul: If you're lax with security, sometimes people will start mining crypto on your stuff without any intervention.

mason what you mean

mason how i start mining

warsoul: same as linux

can anyone verify either way if the Postgresql driver for bacula v15 (from ports) works?

;)

is there a tool that generates htpasswd format files, but with newer algorithms? argon2 would be nice

the ones in ports look ancient

if i am getting this error: cannot zero first 4096 bytes of '/dev/da0': Device not configured when i try to add a drive to a zfs pool

that means the drive is dead?

that sounds like it's a sd card reader and there isn't a card in it

rtprio: it is a hard drive :)

i am trying ot add it to a zpool

Title: dpaste/uNzDi (Plain Text)

but it is a usb drive, eh

0MB (0 512 byte sectors)

yeah, i think it is dead :(

Title: dpaste/jVwnb (Plain Text)

because i am trying to add to this pool

you can't zero the first sector BECAUSE IT DOESN'T HAVE A FIRST SECTOR

so that confirms it is dead

unless some how it "finds" the first sector

you could try a different usb cable but i don't think i'd recommend making a USB zpool

hrm.. i can try the cable, thanks

i understand the risk of usb zpool.. this is just storing backups, it is not being used for production use

that is on a machine that is more equipped for it

okay, but you want to know that the backups are working

yes i test them in a bhyve periodically

zfs send recv

i had a drive laying around and wanted to see if i could expand the pool

Title: dpaste/kve2J (Plain Code)

i probably should be fine with the 786g left but still do not understand why the whole APFS and timemachine does NOT compress

rtprio: thanks for tips, time to go play

what miner i can use for freebsd

warsoul: move along now,

can i add directly devctl reset "devicename" to /etc/rc.resume?

or where to put it

angry_vincent: that seems like a fine place for it.

ok, i will test

maybe it worked

So I just installed freebsd on a riscv64 vm

and I am running into this:

pkg: Error fetching pkg.FreeBSD.org/FreeBSD:14:riscv64/quarterly/Latest/pkg.txz: Not Found

this seem familiar to anyone?

I can't install pkg

risc64 eh

i'm not sure they build packages for that platform

So just the base system?

you can build them yourself, using the ports tree

Title: Chapter 4. Installing Applications: Packages and Ports | FreeBSD Documentation Portal

I don't see a /usr/ports

you might have to download it/ check it out if you didn't add it during the install

I didn't install I downloaded a qcow2

oh

download one of these and extract it to /usr/ports: download.freebsd.org/ports/ports

Title: Index of /ports/ports/

how do I download it though?

fetch

I am still extracing lol

there are a lot of files

yes and I am emulating risc64

no hardware virtualization

or kvm

okay we appeared to have hit some bugs

i have no doubts

why are you doing this?

curiosity and free time

anyway the kernel complained the filesystem got full

even though the qcow2 overlay should grow

I stopped using qemu when a number of better alternatives came along.

like?

i use hyperv and bhyve

I don't use windows

kvm wasn't bad

what's even up with having a backwards compatible pkg tool

what do you mean

To avoid backwards incompatibility issues, the actual pkg(8) tool is not installed in the base system. The first time invoked, pkg will bootstrap the real pkg(8) from a remote repository.

yeah, but that doesn't do you any good without risc64 packages

because it's tier 3 or 4

It's supposed to be Tier 2

Title: Platforms | The FreeBSD Project

hey, I'm using wireguard vpn a lot, but now I disabled the VPN and the machien can't resolve DNS anymore. There is a weird server in my resolv.conf which I can't ping

what software usually changes / maintains, resolv.conf?

or should I just set a dns server there?

I have `ifconfig_DEFAULT="DHCP"` in /etc/rc.conf

so I'd assume it would get the defualt DNS server from the dhcp server?

Yes, it does, and it modifies your /etc/resolv.conf. It is possible that wireguard can also change it but I have no experience with wireguard yet.

can I tell dhcclient to just try and get it again?

yourfate, Probably. You might try "service dhclient restart"

that says `/etc/rc.d/dhclient: ERROR: /etc/rc.d/dhclient: no interface specified`

ah, I specify the if after the srvice restart command I guess

Yea, I forgot. I think you do always have to specify the interface on the command line to dhclient.

hmm, it says it can't start b/c its running, but the PID it tells me doesn't exist. I guess there is some pidfile left somewhere

ah no, it tells me a wrong PID in the error lol

Try service dhclient stop.

then you might try /etc/rc.d/dhclint <ifname> start

I tried that start

stop

it said stopping

waiting for pid

then can't start, already running

I had to find the pid using ps, and kill it

then I could start it again

hmm. I guess it didn't have the correct PID in the /var/run pid file.

hmm, now it runs again, but it didn't fix the resolv.conf

yourfate, strange. Maybe try renaming resolv.conf and see if it will re-create it.

nope, restarting it does not create a resolv.conf

yourfate, Sorry, I don't have any other ideas off the top of my head.

I'm googling, it seems dhclient itself doesn't maintain the resolv.conf

its maintainged by `resolvconf`

Title: resolvconf(8)

My machines always seem to setup resolv.conf when I use DHCP on them. Perhaps dhclient calls on resolvconf, but I don't know why yours would not.

lets try something else: reboot :D

adding jobs to make with -j causes some stuff to fail?

trying to make a port

yourfate, yea, last resort, like reading the manual :-)

Sometimes it can. For elaboration, see #freebsd-ports.

are there any desktop environments with wayland support ported?
