Visit http://nomadbsd.org to download the recent image.

Requirements for Running NomadBSD

  • A >= 5GB flash drive
  • A (amd64/i386) system with a 1.2GHz CPU and 1G of RAM (2G when using ZFS) should be able to run NomadBSD decently.

Building the Image

Requirements for Building the Image

  • A recent FreeBSD system with approx. 30GB free disk space.
  • The build machine's major FreeBSD version must be >= the base system's major version of the image you want to build.
  • A recent ports tree.
  • The packages x11-fonts/mkfontscale, and textproc/markdown must be installed.

Cloning the Repository

% git clone --recursive https://github.com/nomadbsd/NomadBSD.git

Building the Image

Preparation

If your copy of the NomadBSD repository is not owned by the root user, run

# git config --global --add safe.directory /full/path/to/NomadBSD

as root before the first build. Otherwise the build script can't correctly generate the image name.

Building

By default, the build script builds a 64-bit (amd64) image. For a 32-bit (i386) image, or a Mac image set ARCH=i386 or ARCH=mac accordingly in build.cfg. ARCH can also be defined via the -a option.

NomadBSD can be build with UFS (default), and ZFS as file system. The file system can be defined via FILESYSTEM in build.cfg, or via the -f option.

# ./build all

Resuming from Build Errors

If something went wrong, you can resume the build after locating and fixing the problem that caused the build to stop.

# ./build resume

Writing the image to a USB memory stick

# dd if=nomadbsd.img of=/dev/da0 bs=1M conv=sync

website's Issues

Changing The HTML4 to HTML5.

Hello Marcel!

I'm trying to change the HTLM4 structure to HTML5, but It looks like it is impossible to do it with the .in files. Can we stop using the .in files and go for default HTML?

Let me know please :-)

Best regards,

Download and directly write to a USB device

Here is an alternative way to download and at the same time directly write to a USB storage device without the need to store the compressed file to local storage first, hence saving both space and time:

root@host:/home/me# wget "https://download.freebsd.org/ftp/releases/amd64/amd64/ISO-IMAGES/12.1/FreeBSD-12.1-RELEASE-amd64-dvd1.iso" -O /dev/sdX

Maybe it could be mentioned on the website.

Need help on using .in files

Hello, I would like to contribute to this repository, but the files, while the contents are mostly HTML code, the filename extension is .in.

Do I have to use a certain program, or can I edit it directly? Thank you.

Downloading image

When downloading the latest image. After downloading, I extract the file/folder and there is no .iso or .img. I must be doing it wrong. I have used etcher dozens of times. I just can't seem to get the image.
