no
Levi Long
no
Adam Johnson
no
Ethan Brown
yes!
imagine having a brain THIS small
Caleb Turner
CIA niggers, please go
Elijah Carter
yes
John Jackson
yes, but it is still worse than linux
Austin Ross
Linux is a kernel.
Robert Watson
i think what you mean is GNU/Linux, or, as I have recently started calling it, GNU plus Linux
Chase Sanchez
No TRIM.
Gabriel Reyes
Good for a router / firewall maybe, but as a main OS? kek
Jose Perry
these days it's all done at the hardware level, kinda irrelevant
Jose Hill
it doesn't even use GNU Bash, the standard UNIX shell
Jonathan Powell
WTF do you need TRIM for?
Jordan Sanchez
BSD is a meme
Asher Gonzalez
Nice meme bsdcuck. Have fun with your performance degradation after mild ssd use.
Nolan Carter
>standard
whats a standard
Evan Reyes
whatever i decide is good
Cooper Watson

Gee, by that definition, even my FizzBuzz features top notch security.

Jonathan Gutierrez

uh no
t. recently built an openbsd CI build machine with a PCI SSD (NGFF x4)

you wut
Owen Johnson
dumbass
Jaxson Perry
It was my first time. The installer gave me the option of automatically partitioning the whole disk. I thought it was going to give me a large /home or /var.
Anyway, what's a good partitioning scheme for OpenBSD?
Dominic King
If you like being behind GNU/Linux 10 years in terms of advancement then yes, it's a good choice.
James Brooks
Yes.
Jeremiah Sanchez
Try it on a spare laptop.
Christopher Sanders
Can someone tell me a proper partitioning scheme for a laptop with an SSD? I also let it automatically partition and ended up with a chunk of unused space. I don't know how big each partition should be. I don't know where it saves installed programs/packages.

Henry Watson
There's no recommended partitioning scheme in the FAQ. Why do you post links without checking them?
Hudson Wright
But the man pages do. Thanks.

If you know these 2 things you can decide to partition it other than use your entire capacity for /. If you develop on multiple projects with different code, have different builds, applications that have more growing data in the dir they reside in than the partition than it provides, those are the cases where you think about partitioning and some other things as well. For a typical desktop machine partitioning is overrated and unnecessary.
Doesn't help if you don't understand the file system hierarchy

inb4 that freebsd tranny posting his outdated pasta.
Luke James
I didn't know I could use the entire hard drive for / and leave it at that.
Colton Bailey
I highly recommend reading some file system hierarchy on wikipedia. That way you'll get to understand why /boot was enforced for at least a decade as separate partition on *nix systems.
History is always good to know, helps you understand why certain technology has limitations or design flaws, but thanks for the link
