<br />
<!--T:29--><br />
Beginning in February, 2013, the PC-BSD® utilities dealing with software installation and upgrades were converted to [https://wiki.freebsd.org/pkgng pkgng], FreeBSD's Next Generation package management tool. Part of this change included the creation of a custom PC-BSD® package repository which contains all of the packages that can be built using pkgng. Since the FreeBSD project does not yet have an official pkgng repository, FreeBSD users who wish to use pkgng are welcome to use the PC-BSD® package repository.<br />
<br />
<!--T:30--><br />
This package repository contains a custom package, called ''pcbsd-base'', which can be used to easily convert an existing FreeBSD installation into a PC-BSD® desktop. It also contains a custom package called ''trueos-base'' which can be used to convert an existing FreeBSD installation into a TrueOS® server. The converted desktop will contain all of the graphical utilities that come with PC-BSD® and the converted server will contain all of their command line equivalents.<br />
<br />
<!--T:31--><br />
This section describes how to:<br />
<br />
<!--T:32--><br />
* Configure a FreeBSD or PC-BSD® system to use the pkgng repository.<br />
<br />
<!--T:33--><br />
* Convert a FreeBSD system to a PC-BSD® desktop.<br />
<br />
<!--T:34--><br />
* Convert a FreeBSD system to a TrueOS® server.<br />
<br />
== Switching to the PC-BSD® pkgng Repository == <!--T:5--><br />
<br />
<!--T:6--><br />
If you are running PC-BSD® 9.1-RELEASE or FreeBSD 9.1, you will need to first install the {{citelink|url=http://www.freshports.org/ports-mgmt/pkg/ ports-mgmt/pkg|txt=port or package}}.<br />
<br />
<!--T:7--><br />
After installing pkg, run the command '''pkg2ng''' to import your existing package database from the old format to the new pkgng format. <br />
<br />
<!--T:8--><br />
Next, configure access to the PC-BSD® repository. Start by creating the file ''/usr/local/etc/pkg.conf'' with the following contents:<br />
<br />
<!--T:35--><br />
{{txtbox|box=packagesite: {{ftp}}ftp.pcbsd.org/pub/mirror/packages/9.1-RELEASE/amd64<br />
PUBKEY: /usr/local/etc/pkg-pubkey.cert<br />
PKG_CACHEDIR: /usr/local/tmp}}<br />
<br />
<!--T:10--><br />
Note that the ''packagesite:'' variable should be changed to a PC-BSD® mirror close to your geographic location. Additionally, ''9.1-RELEASE'' and ''amd64'' can be changed to indicate the release version and architecture you want to use. Click [http://www.pcbsd.org/getmirrors.php?url=packages here] to get a list of the available mirrors and package sets.<br />
<br />
<!--T:11--><br />
Next, download the repository's [http://trac.pcbsd.org/export/780f3da562b72643c04b47a59d277102a09abbca/src-sh/pc-extractoverlay/desktop-overlay/usr/local/etc/pkg-pubkey.cert public key cert file], and copy it to ''/usr/local/etc/pkg-pubkey.cert''.<br />
<br />
<!--T:12--><br />
The system is now configured and you now update your packages to the latest versions from the pkgng repository using the following command:<br />
<br />
<!--T:13--><br />
{{txtbox|box= '''pkg upgrade -fy'''}}<br />
<br />
<!--T:14--><br />
Depending upon what is already installed, you may have to resolve some error messages in order to successfully upgrade all packages.<br />
<br />
<!--T:15--><br />
To install and delete packages use the '''pkg''' command. This command differs in usage from the original package format version. You can learn more about how to use this command in [http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/pkgng-intro.html Section 5.5.3 of the FreeBSD Handbook].<br />
<br />
== Converting FreeBSD to a PC-BSD® Desktop == <!--T:16--><br />
<br />
<!--T:17--><br />
Once the repository configuration is complete, it is now easy to convert a FreeBSD system into a PC-BSD® desktop using the following commands as the superuser:<br />
<br />
<!--T:36--><br />
{{txtbox|box= '''pkg install -fy pcbsd-base'''<br />
'''rehash'''<br />
'''pbreg set /PC-BSD/SysType PCBSD'''<br />
'''pc-extractoverlay desktop'''<br />
'''pc-extractoverlay ports'''}}<br />
<br />
<!--T:37--><br />
Next, reboot the system and the PC-BSD® login manager will start, allowing you to login to the desktop. If you want the [Post Installation Configuration and Installation Troubleshooting |PC-BSD® display wizard and first boot wizards] to run first, run these commands before rebooting:<br />
<br />
<!--T:38--><br />
{{txtbox|box= '''touch /var/.runxsetup'''<br />
'''touch /var/.pcbsd-firstboot'''<br />
'''touch /var/.pcbsd-firstgui'''}}<br />
<br />
<!--T:39--><br />
If you are running FreeBSD 10-CURRENT, specify the PBI version to pull from. To do so, edit ''/usr/local/etc/pbi.conf'' and add this line:<br />
<br />
{{txtbox|box=PBI_FBSDMAJOR: 9}}<br />
<br />
<!--T:40--><br />
{{note|icon64= If you are using NVIDIA video hardware, load the driver before rebooting into the display wizard by running the command '''pc-metapkgmanager add NVIDIA'''.}}<br />
<br />
== Converting FreeBSD to a TrueOS® Server == <!--T:26--><br />
<br />
<!--T:27--><br />
If you wish to convert a FreeBSD server to TrueOS®, use the following commands:<br />
<br />
<!--T:41--><br />
{{txtbox|box= '''pkg install -fy trueos-base'''<br />
'''rehash'''<br />
'''pbreg set /PC-BSD/SysType TRUEOS'''<br />
'''pc-extractoverlay server'''<br />
'''pc-extractoverlay ports'''}}<br />
<br />
<!--T:42--><br />
The installation of the ''trueos-base'' package will install the following: [[PBI Manager]], the command line version of '''[[Warden®#Using the Command Line Version of Warden® | warden]]''', and the command line versions of most of the [[Control Panel]] utilities. You will find those utilities in ''/usr/local/bin/pc-*''. It also installs this {{citelink|url=http://trac.pcbsd.org/browser/pcbsd/branches/9.1/build-files/metapkgsets/warden/pkgset/base-system/ports-list|txt=list}} of additional shells and utilities.<br />

PC-BSD® uses FreeBSD as its underlying operating system, so everything in the {{citelink|fbsdh|url=|txt=FreeBSD Handbook}} and {{citelink|url=http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/faq/|txt=FreeBSD FAQ}} applies to PC-BSD® as well. Both documents are very comprehensive and cover nearly every task you can accomplish on a FreeBSD system. They are also an excellent resource for learning how things work under the hood of your PC-BSD® system.<br />
<br />

{{navHeader|back=Goals and Features|forward=PC-BSD® Releases}}</noinclude><br />
<br />
<!--T:2--><br />
The following features have been added since PC-BSD® 9.1 was released on December 18, 2012. Users who wish to test or take advantage of these features can either install or upgrade to a [[Using a Rolling Release|rolling release]]. Once the upcoming 9.2 release cycle begins, these features will be incorporated into that version of PC-BSD®.<br />
<br />
<!--T:5--><br />
Here is a list of the new features:<br />
<br />
<!--T:7--><br />
* [[EasyPBI2|EasyPBI]] has been revamped as version 2, making it even easier to create complex PBIs.<br />
<br />
<!--T:8--><br />
* It is now possible to easily [[Convert a FreeBSD System to PC-BSD®]].<br />
<br />
<!--T:9--><br />
* The GDM login manager has been replaced with the BSD-licensed [[PCDM]].<br />
<br />
<!--T:10--><br />
* The system has changed from the traditional ports system to [[Using pkgng|pkgng]] and all of the PC-BSD® utilities that deal with installing or updating software now use pkgng. This means that you can now safely install non-PBI software from the command line and that a system upgrade will no longer delete non-PBI software.<br />
<br />
<!--T:11--><br />
* The PC-BSD® utilities that deal with installing software or updates now use [http://aria2.sourceforge.net/ aria2] which greatly increases download speed over slow links. aria2 achieves this by downloading a file from multiple sources over multiple protocols in order to utilize the maximum download bandwidth. The '''pc-pkg''' command has been added as a wrapper script to '''pkg'''. Use '''pc-pkg''' if you wish to increase your download speed when installing or upgrading pkgng packages.<br />

{{NavHeader|back=Convert a FreeBSD System to PC-BSD® |forward=Dual Booting}}</noinclude><br />
<br />
<!--T:1--><br />
In February, 2013, PC-BSD® switched to a rolling release model. This is intended to make it easier for users to keep the packages that came with the operating system up-to-date and to make new features available for testing before the next major version is released.<br />
<br />
<!--T:4--><br />
The rolling release model is optional. This means that users can choose to either remain on a RELEASE version or to upgrade to a rolling release. Users that remain on RELEASE will still be notified of security updates and updates to software installed using AppCafe®, however they will not receive updates to the packages installed with the operating system or any new features until they upgrade to the next RELEASE version.<br />
<br />
<!--T:5--><br />
Users who wish to install a version of PC-BSD® which contains the latest operating system software and features can choose to install the latest rolling release instead of the 9.1-RELEASE version. <br />
<br />
<!--T:6--><br />
The rest of this section will demonstrate how to upgrade to a rolling release and how to install a rolling release.<br />
<br />
<!--T:7--><br />
{{note|icon64=The rolling release model is new to PC-BSD® and glitches should be expected. Users who prefer stability over the latest versions of software and who do not wish to test new features should stay on RELEASE. Users who like to have the latest versions of software and who are willing to look for and to [[Report Bugs |report bugs]] should use the latest rolling release.}}<br />
<br />
=== Upgrading a 9.1-RELEASE System to a Rolling Release === <!--T:8--><br />
<br />
<!--T:9--><br />
To upgrade a PC-BSD® 9.1-RELEASE system to a rolling release, become the superuser and edit the file<br />
''/usr/local/share/pcbsd/pc-updatemanager/conf/sysupdate.conf''. Change this line:<br />
<br />
<!--T:10--><br />
PATCHSET: pcbsd<br />
<br />
<!--T:11--><br />
to<br />
<br />
<!--T:12--><br />
PATCHSET: pcbsdtest<br />
<br />
<!--T:13--><br />
Once the edit is saved, you can use either [[Update Manager]] or [[Meta Package Manager | '''pc-updatemanager''']] to upgrade to the latest rolling release. Once the upgrade is complete, it will automatically change the above line so that it looks like this:<br />
<br />
<!--T:14--><br />
PATCHSET: updates<br />
<br />
<!--T:15--><br />
As new rolling releases become available, they will appear in Update Manager. An announcement will also be made to the [http://lists.pcbsd.org/mailman/listinfo/testing testing mailing list] and to the [http://blog.pcbsd.org|PC-BSD® blog], indicating which features are new in this rolling release and any known caveats. If you find a bug in a rolling release, either leave a comment on the associated blog post or send an email with the details to the testing mailing list.<br />
<br />
<!--T:16--><br />
{{note|icon64= As with any upgrade, always backup your data first. [[Life Preserver]] can be used to backup your home directory to another system in your network.}}<br />
<br />
=== Installing a Rolling Release === <!--T:17--><br />
<br />
<!--T:18--><br />
To install a rolling release from DVD or USB media, or to try a live USB image, select the desired architecture and media type from this [http://mirrors.isc.org/pub/pcbsd/9.1-RELEASE/ FTP server]. Rolling releases will always have a date in the media name and you should choose the most recent date. After downloading the desired file, you can install or use the live image as usual, as described in Chapters 2-4 of this Handbook.<br />
<br />
<!--T:19--><br />
Once installed, a rolling release will automatically notify you when a newer rolling release becomes available. You can use either [[Update Manager]] or [[Meta Package Manager | '''pc-updatemanager''']] to upgrade to the newer rolling release.<br />
<br />
<!--T:20--><br />
Before upgrading, backup your data and check the announcement on the [http://blog.pcbsd.org|PC-BSD® blog] to see which features are new and any known caveats. If you find a bug in that rolling release, either leave a comment on the associated blog post or send an email with the details to the [http://lists.pcbsd.org/mailman/listinfo/testing testing mailing list].<br />

First, go to System Manager -> [[System_Manager#Install.2FUninstall_Desktops_and_System_Components|System Packages]] and make sure that Development -> Development-Qt and Development-VCS are installed. You will also need to install system source using System Manager -> [[System_Manager#Install_FreeBSD_Source_and_Ports|Tasks]].<br />
<br />
<!--T:19--><br />
Next, open a command prompt, become the superuser, and '''cd''' to a directory suitable for downloading the PCDM source. Execute the following commands to download and build the PCDM source:<br />
<br />
<!--T:20--><br />
'''svn co <nowiki>svn://svn.pcbsd.org/pcbsd/current/src-qt4/</nowiki>'''<br />
'''cd src-qt4/libpcbsd'''<br />
'''qmake-qt4 *.pro'''<br />
'''make'''<br />
'''make install'''<br />
'''cd ../PCDM'''<br />
'''qmake-qt4 *.pro'''<br />
'''make'''<br />
'''make install'''<br />
<br />
<!--T:21--><br />
Once the installation is complete, instruct the system to use PCDM instead of GDM. Add these lines in ''/etc/rc.conf'':<br />
<br />
<!--T:22--><br />
gdm_enable="NO"<br />
<br />
<!--T:23--><br />
pcdm_enable="YES"<br />
<br />
<!--T:24--><br />
Save the edits then reboot the system to access the PCDM login prompt.<br />
<br />
=== Display Overview === <!--T:5--><br />
(post screenshot)<br />
Currently its in rather rough shape but functional. When it is nearer to finalized, there will be screenshots.<br />
<br />
== Customization/Modification == <!--T:6--><br />
<br />
<!--T:26--><br />
PCDM themes can be saved to and loaded from ''/usr/local/share/PCDM/themes/<my-theme>''.<br />
<br />
=== Configuring pcdm.conf === <!--T:27--><br />

The Handbook grows into a useful resource when users (meaning you!) contribute to it. You do not have to write large sections of the Handbook in order to be a contributor. You also do not need to have a lot of time on your hands. You simply have to create a login account in order to assist with any of the following tasks:<br />
<br />
<!--T:32--><br />
* proofread existing pages and fix any typos, grammos, or unclearly worded sections.<br />
<br />
<!--T:33--><br />
* add to sections containing missing, outdated, or incomplete content.<br />
<br />
<!--T:34--><br />
* update any screenshots that are out of date.<br />
<br />
<!--T:35--><br />
* every page has a Discussion tab. You can use this if you would like to suggest further information that should appear in that section of the Handbook.<br />
<br />
<!--T:36--><br />
* create a new section for content that is not yet covered in the Handbook. If you are not sure where to do this, ask on a semi-related Discussion tab.<br />
<br />
<!--T:37--><br />
We are emailed whenever edits are made and will contact you for clarification if an edit is unclear. You can also be notified when specified pages are edited--simply click the "my preferences" or "my watchlist" links whenever you are logged into the wiki.<br />

While professional PC-BSD® support is available from {{citelink|url=http://www.ixsystems.com/support-center/ix/software/pc-bsd.html|txt=iXsystems}}, most users turn to the Internet for help. We are doing our best to make PC-BSD® as easy as possible for newcomers. Should you need help, there are plenty of ways to get in touch with the PC-BSD® community.

<!--T:2--><br />
{{note|width=55%|icon64=This page is for EasyPBI version 2.0 and later, which was introduced after PC-BSD® 9.1. [[EasyPBI]] explains the 9.1 version of EasyPBI. Since this version adds many features, users are encouraged to install version 2 as described in the next section.}}<br />
<br />
<!--T:3--><br />
EasyPBI is a graphical application that makes it easy to build a PBI module from a FreeBSD port. EasyPBI version 2 ships with PC-BSD® rolling releases and can be found in the Control Panel. If you are running PC-BSD® 9.1-RELEASE, the EasyPBI found in the control panel is for the original version. You can upgrade this version following the instructions in the next section.<br />
<br />
<!--T:78--><br />
The new features built into EasyPBI version 2 include:<br />
<br />
<!--T:79--><br />
* The ability to package a local directory into a PBI without using the FreeBSD Ports Collection.<br />
<br />
<!--T:80--><br />
* Adds an additional build option to build 32-bit PBIs on 64-bit systems.<br />
<br />
<!--T:81--><br />
* Complete support for editing installation wrapper scripts, as well as a basic template for creating new binary wrapper scripts.<br />
<br />
<!--T:82--><br />
* Improved support for full creation/editing of XDG desktop/menu entries with easy MIME type integration. <br />
<br />
<!--T:83--><br />
* Support for the OptionsNG format for setting port build options is enabled by default.<br />
<br />
<!--T:84--><br />
* Support for multiple-lines when specifying build options.<br />
<br />
<!--T:85--><br />
Additionally, the following UI improvements were made:<br />
<br />
<!--T:86--><br />
* New "Settings" dialog for setting/changing default directory paths, PBI build settings, and any external utilities.<br />
<br />
<!--T:87--><br />
* New "Ports" dialog displays the last time the ports tree was updated and simplifies the process of using portsnap or svn to update the system ports tree.<br />
<br />
<!--T:88--><br />
* New "About" dialog for quickly viewing information about EasyPBI such as its license information and development history.<br />
<br />
== Getting EasyPBI Version 2 == <!--T:89--><br />
<br />
<!--T:90--><br />
If you are running a rolling release, you already have EasyPBI version 2. You can verify this by going to Control Panel ➜ EasyPBI ➜ Information ➜ About EasyPBI.<br />
<br />
<!--T:91--><br />
If you are running PC-BSD® 9.1-RELEASE, you can install EasyPBI version 2 [[Using AppCafe®]]. You will need to specify the full path to EasyPBI2 in order to run this version by typing '''/usr/pbi/easypbi-amd64/bin/EasyPBI'''.<br />
<br />
<!--T:92--><br />
If you are running FreeBSD, you can install the sysutils/easypbi/ package or port. To start the application, type '''EasyPBI'''.<br />
<br />
<!--T:93--><br />
The rest of this section demonstrates how to use EasyPBI version 2 to convert an existing FreeBSD port into a PC-BSD® PBI. You may wish to skim the section on how to [[Create PBIs]] first, as well as refer to that section should you have trouble creating a PBI or wish to create a more complex PBI.<br />
<br />
== EasyPBI Setup == <!--T:6--><br />
When EasyPBI starts up, it will automatically check for a few external utilities that are necessary for full usage of EasyPBI. If there are any that are missing, you will receive a message like the one shown in figure 8.1a. <br />
<br />
<!--T:7--><br />
'''Figure 8.1a: Missing External Utilities'''<br />
<br />
<!--T:8--><br />
[[File:EasypbiMissingUtils.png]] THE WORDING OF THIS MAY CHANGE<br />
<br />
<!--T:94--><br />
If this message appears, click “Options” → “EasyPBI Settings” → “Detected Utilities” tab. Any missing utilities will not have the path to that utility filled in. For most PC-BSD® users, this warning occurs if the FreeBSD ports tree is not installed, as seen in the example in Figure 8.1b..<br />
<br />
<!--T:95--><br />
'''Figure 8.1b: Ports Tree not Installed'''<br />
<br />
<!--T:96--><br />
[[File:EasypbiMissingUtils2.png]]<br />
<br />
=== Updating the FreeBSD Ports Tree === <!--T:9--><br />
To fetch or update the FreeBSD ports tree, you will need to start by clicking on the “System” → “Get FreeBSD Ports” menu button. This opens up the window shown in figure 8.1b, and will allow you to fetch/update the FreeBSD ports tree for just in current user (in the user's EasyPBI directory) or for the entire system (in /usr/ports). If you have administrator/root priveleges on your system, I recommend using the system ports tree since it will be available for all users, and the default PC-BSD® settings for ZFS usually compress that directory to save disk space.<br />

=== PBI Build Settings === <!--T:12--><br />
To setup the options for building PBI's with EasyPBI, you will need to click on the “Options” → “EasyPBI Settings” menu button to open up the settings window. In figure 8.1c you can see the first tab that shows what PBI build options are available. <br />
<br />
<!--T:13--><br />
'''Figure 8.1c: PBI Build Settings'''<br />
<br />
<!--T:14--><br />
[[File:SettingsPBI.png]]<br />
<br />
<!--T:15--><br />
If you choose to digitally sign your PBI's, you will need to supply the location of the file that contains your openssl signature. This will digitally sign all of the important pieces of a PBI so that it is ready for for tamper-evident distribution.<br />
<br />
<!--T:16--><br />
The TMPFS option allows the PBI build process to save all of the relevant port build pieces into memory rather than saving it to disk. This will speed up the build process, but you want to make sure that you have a decent amount of memory available ( >2GB). If you happen to get “Out of memory” errors from a PBI build, you will need to turn this option off for that particular build. This can happen occationally when rather large ports (like office programs and such).<br />
<br />
<!--T:17--><br />
The package caching option is recommended for all users. This option saves all compiled ports as packages in the cache on your system, allowing the PBI build process to become much faster by using the pre-build packages from the cache whenever possible rather than re-compiling every port dependency for the PBI's you build. Just in case you run into problems with any packages in your cache, there are two additional options for dealing with the cache. The first option is to simply clear all packages from the cache and start fresh. The second option is for the situation where a particular package consistently causes problems with PBI builds. In this case, you can add that particular package to the “Ignore” list. This will remove the designated packages from the cache immediately before you start each build, ensuring that it will always compile that port for each build that requires it.<br />
<br />
=== Default Path Settings === <!--T:18--><br />
The next tab in the settings window is shown in figure 8.1d, and lets the user set some default search paths for EasyPBI. The first option lets you set the default directory to use when loading PBI modules, and it is also the directory that any new modules get created in. The option labelled “Icon Dir” sets the initial search location for icons and other resources. The last option lets you set the default icon that is gset when you initially create a new module.<br />
<br />
<!--T:19--><br />

<br />
<!--T:20--><br />
[[File:SettingsPBI.png]]<br />
<br />
=== External Utilities === <!--T:21--><br />
The last tab in the EasyPBI Settings window is the External Utilities tab. This tab (as shown in figure 8.1e) shows the detected location of the external utilities required for all of EasyPBI's features to be available. This allows you to be able to manually set the location of any of these utilities if you happen to have them installed into non-standard locations. In addition, there is a button that allows you to return to the auto-detected configuration paths, just in case it gets all messed up somehow.<br />
<br />

<br />
== Module Editor == <!--T:24--><br />
The module editor for EasyPBI version 2.0 now supports complete control over all the options available for PBI's. Most of these options will not be necessary for the majority of PBI use cases, but they are available for those few programs that just need some extra tweaking to be able to work properly.<br />
EasyPBI provides suggestions and default settings whenever there is a green arrow next to an option within the editor. Just click on the arrow to see any available suggestions, then click on the one that you wish to select to have EasyPBI add it to the proper option within the module for you. Now let's go through each of the tabs within the editor and explain the options.<br />
NOTE: For tutorials on how to produce a PBI for the majority of use cases, please look at the examples at the end of the guide. <br />
<br />
=== PBI Configuration === <!--T:25--><br />
In figure 8.1f we can see the PBI Configuration tab of the module editor. This tab is probably the most important out of all of them, because it lets you set the required information about the program being packaged as a PBI. <br />
<br />
<!--T:26--><br />
'''Figure 8.1f: PBI Configuration'''<br />
<br />
<!--T:27--><br />
[[File:Easypbiconfig.png]]<br />
<br />
<!--T:28--><br />
When you create a new module from a FreeBSD port, EasyPBI will try to automatically fill in this information for you from the available port information, but it is a good idea to look through it and make corrections as necessary. The value that I generally have to adjust is the program name, because quite often the FreeBSD port does not have the full program name list with the proper capitalization. The next thing to definitely check is the program author, since if the author is not listed in the FreeBSD port, EasyPBI will supply the email for the FreeBSD port maintainer instead (because that is the first person to contact about isues with the program). The icons that are available in the pulldown box are dependent upon what PNG images files have been added to the PBI resources. See the resources tab for additional information on adding icon files.<br />
The build information box provides all of the options available for building a PBI. For a PBI from local sources, this just contains the directory that you are going to package as a PBI, while for a PBI from a FreeBSD port there are a number of other options. For converting a FreeBSD port to a PBI, the only option that is required is the “Main FreeBSD Port” option. This should be set for you automatically based upon the port that you selected when creating a new module, but you can also change it here by clicking on the “Change Port” button.<br />
If there are any special options available for the port (click the “Information” → “FreeBSD Ports” menu button to open up a web browser with information about the port), you can enable them in the “Port Build Options” box. EasyPBI will try to autodetect the options that are available, and clicking on an available option from the recommendations will automatically add it to the box in the proper format.<br />
If you discover that the port appears to be missing a dependancy for the main program you are packaging as a PBI, you can add additional FreeBSD ports to the “Make Port Before/After” options. If the missing dependency is causing the main port to not even build properly, then you will want to add it to the “Make Port Before” option, otherwise if it is a missing runtime dependency you will want to add it to the “Make Port After” option.<br />
The last option available is for both local and port PBI modules. The “Requires Root Permissions” checkbox lets you set whether the PBI can only be installed/uninstalled with administrator (root) privileges. This is important if the program requires special users/groups to be created, or an installation script needs access to the local system to make modifications.<br />
<br />
<!--T:29--><br />
NOTE: Changes to the PBI configuration will not be saved to the module until you click the “Save” button. So be sure to save your work before moving to other tabs!<br />
<br />
=== Resources === <!--T:30--><br />
The resources tab displays any extra files that will be included in the PBI (as shown in figure 8.1g). If you click on a file, for images it will show the full size image with size and type information, for other files it will attempt to display the text inside the file (for editing scripts). <br />
This tab is mainly used for adding PNG images to be used as icons for the program, but is not restricted to this. One additional use for resources that is more common is to create a wrapper script for starting the program. This is generally used for applications that have some some special environment variable that needs to be set before starting the program (such as JAVA_HOME). EasyPBI can now help in setting up a wrapper script byt clicking on the “+Wrapper Script” button. This will prompt you for a filename (I recommend <binary-name>.sh), and will generate a template for the script that sets a couple of the most commonly used variables. Creating a wrapper script is considered an “advanced” task that requires knowledge of shell programming, so feel free to ask for help on the forums or the PBI developers mailing list if you need some assistance.<br />
<br />
<!--T:31--><br />

<br />
<!--T:32--><br />
[[File:Easypbiresources.png]]<br />
<br />
=== XDG Entries === <!--T:33--><br />
This tab allows the user to create desktop icons and menu entries for the application to be easily started from within a desktop environment. This is the most important step for graphical applications after the PBI configuration, as it lets you configure the primary method that users will interact with the program.<br />
You can see the entries that are currently in the module on the left side of the tab, and clicking on any of the files will display its details on the right. You may remove an entry by clicking the “minus” button, or create a new entry by clicking on the white paper button under the entry list. On the right side of the tab you can edit the currently selected entry and click the “Save” button to overwrite it, or click “Add” to save the details as a new entry, easily letting you make copies of any entry.<br />
<br />
<!--T:34--><br />
'''Figure 8.1h: Desktop Entries'''<br />
<br />
<!--T:35--><br />
[[File:Easypbixdgdesktop.png]]<br />
<br />
<!--T:36--><br />
Figure 8.1h shows the options that are available for desktop entries, and while the labels are fairly self-explanatory, lets go through and explain them. First is the “Name” for the entry. This is the text that the application user will see for the entry, and usually you just make it the full name of the application that the entry starts up. Next is the actual binary/executable that is used to start the application. EasyPBI will try to make recommendations based upon the main FreeBSD port being used, but you can manually set this as needed. After that is the icon to be used for the application. Just as with the program configuration, the available options are dependent upon the PNG resources available in the PBI.<br />
The two checkboxes at the end are more for special-case options. The “Open in Terminal” checkbox let you specify whether the application needs to be opened in an X terminal. This is useful for running some text-based programs that need to be embedded into a console for user interaction. The “Make Invisible” option lets you setup the entry to not actually be shown. This is not as useful for desktop entries (where the whole purpose is to be seen), but will come in much more handy with menu entries.<br />
<br />
<!--T:37--><br />
'''Figure 8.1i: Menu Entries'''<br />
<br />
<!--T:38--><br />
[[File:Easypbixdgmenu.png]]<br />
<br />
<!--T:39--><br />
Figure 8.1i shows the options that are available for menu entries. Most of them are exactly the same as the ones for desktop entries, but there are two new ones that will be rather important. The first new option is labelled “Category” and this is the menu category that the entry will be placed under when listed in the desktop environment. The available menu categories are listed by EasyPBI in the suggestions box, with a small arrow next to the one that EasyPBI recommends for the application based upon the main FreeBSD port information. The last option is called “MIME Patterns” and lets you associate a space-seperated list of file types with the application. This becomes extremely useful when paired with the “Make Invisible” option. <br />
For example, let's assume that your application has three main binaries, one each for two different aspects of the program, and an additional one that basically askes which of the other two you want to use. You could setup menu entries for all three binaries, but make the two specific ones invisible and associate file types with them. This means that when a user tries to open one of those file types, it will automatically run the particular binary that uses it, rather than prompting the user for input about what to do with the file.<br />
<br />
=== Scripts === <!--T:40--><br />
This tab (as shown in figure 8.1j) allows you to view and edit any installation scripts that are included within the PBI. If you click on the pulldown box, you will see a list of the scripts that are available, with icons next to them indicating if that script exists in the module. Selecting a script will give you the option to either create it (if it does not exist) or will display the full script in a box for editing.<br />
<br />
<!--T:41--><br />
NOTE: Changes to the script of any kind (including creating one) will not be saved to the module until you click the “Save” button. So be sure to save your work before moving to other tabs or scripts!<br />
<br />
<!--T:42--><br />
ADDITIONAL NOTE: For “Local Source” PBI's, the only valid scripts are "pre-install.sh", “post-install.sh”, and “pre-remove.sh”. Later versions of EasyPBI will automatically change the list of valid scripts appropriately.<br />
<br />
'''Figure 8.1j: Installation Scripts'''<br />
<br />
<!--T:43--><br />
[[File:Easypbiscripts.png]]<br />
<br />
=== External Links === <!--T:44--><br />
This tab lets you setup links for files within the PBI onto the local system. This is generally used only for additional command-line program binaries, or binaries in dependencies to the main FreeBSD port being packaged as a PBI. This becomes very important when you start adding additional files (such as wrapper scripts) to the PBI that are not included in the port. If you are packaging a local directory into a PBI instead of using the FreeBSD ports, this is the method by which you setup what the main binaries are for the application. The “File” entry is for the file location in the PBI directory, and the “Link To” option is where you want to link it on the base system (relative to /usr/local/). The “File Type” option lets you set what type of link it needs to be, with options available from the suggestions button. Details about the different file types are available below. EasyPBI will suggest any binaries that it detects from the main port (in case you want to set a different file type), but in general this is not used very often.<br />
<br />
<!--T:45--><br />
NOTE: The files that you want to have listed here are any files that need to be available on the users general system path. For FreeBSD ports, the binaries from the main port are already setup for this by default (you don't need to add them here unless you want to change the file type).<br />
<br />
<!--T:46--><br />
File Types:<br />
* '''binary:''' indicates that this is an executable. The PBI will automatically create the necessary wrapper and PATH links for you.<br />
<br />
<!--T:47--><br />
* '''linux:''' indicates that this is a Linux executable. EasyPBI will automatically create the necessary Linux wrapper and PATH links for you.<br />
<br />
<!--T:48--><br />
* '''keep:''' instructs the PBI to ''' ''not'' ''' overwrite an existing file when linking a file into the LOCALBASE. By default, LOCALBASE is set to ''/usr/local''.<br />
<br />
<!--T:49--><br />
* '''replace:''' instructs the PBI to overwrite an existing file when linking a file into the LOCALBASE.<br />
<br />
<!--T:50--><br />
* '''nocrash:''' disables the crashhandler GUI from running on this PBI. Note that the glue for the crash handler is not built into the base system yet.<br />
<br />

<br />
== PBI Builder == <!--T:53--><br />
EasyPBI provides a front-end to the PBI build structure, allowing you to use a PBI module to build the full PBI on your local system. As shown in figure 8.1l, this interface is relatively simple, with buttons to start and stop the build, as well as save the build log (in case you need to seek assistance). If you are using a 64-bit system, there is also an additional checkbox allowing you to build a 32-bit PBI rather than keeping with the system architecture. <br />
Performing a PBI build will require administrator (root) access on your system, as well as an active internet connection if building a PBI from a FreeBSD port. The current options for the PBI build process can be configured in the EasyPBI settings. EasyPBI can only perform one build at a time, and you are able to load and edit other PBI modules while a PBI is building in the background. You will receive a notification about the success/failure of the PBI build when it is finished, or you can keep an eye on the build log to see how it is progressing. <br />
<br />
<!--T:54--><br />

== Example: Converting a FreeBSD port to a PBI == <!--T:56--><br />
<br />
<!--T:57--><br />
'''Step 1''': Create a PBI module<br />
<br />
<!--T:58--><br />
Click on the "New" button at the top of the window to open up the small dialog shown in figure 8.1m.<br />
<br />
<!--T:59--><br />
'''Figure 8.1m: New Module Dialog'''<br />
<br />
<!--T:60--><br />
[[File:Easypbinewmoduleport.png]]<br />
<br />
<!--T:61--><br />
Make sure that the "FreeBSD Port" option is selected, then click select the FreeBSD port that you wish to convert. You may either type in the port directory/name manually, or click the "Select" button to open up the current FreeBSD ports directory for selecting a port. Once this is done, you may either select a PNG icon to use for the application, or simply use the default icon supplied by EasyPBI. Click "OK" to create the new module.<br />
<br />
<br />
<!--T:62--><br />
'''Step 2''': (OPTIONAL) Checking the new module<br />
<br />
<!--T:63--><br />
Once a new module has been created, it is usually a good idea to just browse through the module in the editor and make sure that everything looks good. The main things to check are on the "PBI Configuration" tab (figure 8.1n), but if it is a graphical application you will also want to go to the "XDG Entries" tab and create a desktop/menu entry for the application (figure 8.1o).<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
<!--T:68--><br />
'''Step 3''': Build the PBI<br />
<br />
<!--T:69--><br />
Open up the PBI Builder, then click on "Build PBI" to start the build process. This will require root permissions as well as an internet connection, and might take a while to finish (depending on your system hardware and PBI build settings). Once the PBI build is finished, a notification window will appear telling you whether the build was successful or not. <br />
<br />
<!--T:70--><br />
NOTE: While a PBI build is running, you may go ahead and create/edit other PBI modules without interfering with the build process.<br />
<br />
<!--T:71--><br />
NOTE 2: To install a newly-created PBI, you can either open up the PBI output directory in a file manager and double-click on the PBI file, or you can run "pbi_add <pbi-file>" from the command line.<br />
<br />
<!--T:72--><br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
== Submit the Module == <!--T:75--><br />
<br />
<!--T:76--><br />
Once you are satisfied with a PBI, make sure that the module is loaded, then click on the “Options” → “Package Module” menu button. A pop-up window will indicate that the module has been compressed and that a ''.tar.gz'' file has been added to the PBI module directory. This means that if you look at the path for the currently loaded module at the top of the screen, you can find the packaged form of the module in the same directory.<br />
<br />
<!--T:77--><br />
If you send that file to the {{citelink|url=http://lists.pcbsd.org/mailman/listinfo/pbi-dev|txt=pbi-dev mailing list}}, it will be added to the PC-BSD® build servers so that the 32- and 64-bit versions of the PBI can be built. Once the built PBIs are tested, they will be added to AppCafe® so that other PC-BSD® users can benefit from the PBI.<br />

<noinclude>{{NavHeader|back=PBI Manager|forward=Update Manager}}</noinclude><br />
<br />
<!--T:2--><br />
Beginning in February, 2013, PC-BSD® switched from the traditional FreeBSD ports system to [http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/pkgng-intro.html pkgng], the next generation package management system for FreeBSD. <br />
<br />
<!--T:3--><br />
{{note|icon64= Users of PC-BSD® 9.1-RELEASE will not be affected by this change unless they upgrade or install a [[Using a Rolling Release| rolling release]].}}<br />
<br />
<!--T:4--><br />
All of the PC-BSD® utilities that deal with installing or updating software now use the pkgng system. This allows users to safely install non-PBI software from the command line without that software being deleted by a system upgrade.<br />
<br />
<!--T:5--><br />
Since FreeBSD does not have an official pkgng repository yet, the PC-BSD® project provides its own repository containing all of the packages that can be built using pkgng.<br />
<br />
<!--T:6--><br />
PC-BSD® provides a custom command, '''pc-pkg''', which is a small wrapper to '''pkg'''. When '''pc-pkg''' is used with the '''install''' or '''upgrade''' flags, it will automatically connect to the PC-BSD® pkgng repository using the integrated [http://aria2.sourceforge.net/ aria2] downloader utility, which can significantly reduce download speeds over a slow link.<br />
<br />
<!--T:7--><br />
If you are used to using the traditional FreeBSD package system, you will notice that the commands used to install and manage software differ slightly. For example, instead of using '''pkg_add''' to install a package from a remote repository, use '''pkg install''' or '''pc-pkg install''' (notice there is now a space instead of an underscore). Type '''man pkg''' to see a list of the available commands. Once you know the name of a command, you can use the built-in help system to get more information about that command. For example, to learn more about '''pkg install''', type '''pkg help install'''.<br />

{{citelink|url=http://owncloud.org/|txt=ownCloud}} is open source software that allows you to create your own cloud storage. This allows you to share data, contacts, and calendars with other devices and users.<br />
<br />
<!--T:3--><br />
[[File:Owncloud.png|thumb|385px|'''Figure 9.9a: Install the Required Packages''']]<br />
<br />
<!--T:4--><br />
In PC-BSD®, you can create your own private cloud service by installing ownCloud either into a traditional jail that you created using [[Warden®]] or into a [[Install a Server|TrueOS® installation]]. For security reasons, installing ownCloud directly onto a desktop installation is not recommended, as the web and database services it requires may expose the desktop to security vulnerabilities. If you are installing ownCloud on a PC-BSD® system, create a traditional jail as it isolates the software installed into the jail from your desktop operating system.<br />
<br />
=== Install and Start the Required Services === <!--T:5--><br />
<br />
<!--T:6--><br />
If you are installing ownCloud into a traditional jail, make sure that the jail has been started, then go to the "Packages" tab of the jail as seen in the example in Figure 9.9a.<br />
<br />
<!--T:7--><br />
Check the boxes for Database-Servers ➜ MySQL, Languages ➜ PHP, and Web-Servers ➜ Apache, then click the "Apply" button to install these packages.<br />
[[File:Owncloud1.png|thumb|385px|'''Figure 9.9b: Start the Required Services''']]<br />
Once installed, go to Tools ➜ Service Manager which will open the screen shown in Figure 9.9b. Highlight the apache22 service and click the "Enable Service" button and then the "Start" button. Repeat for the mysql service.<br />
<br />
<!--T:8--><br />
Verify that you can reach the web server by typing the IP address of the jail into a web browser. You should receive an "It works!" message. You will need to first allow incoming TCP port 80 on the jail interface using [[Firewall Manager]] if you use a web browser on a different computer.<br />
<br />
<!--T:9--><br />
If you are installing ownCloud onto a TrueOS® system, you will need to create the jail and install the dependencies from the command line. When creating the jail, specify the jail IP address and hostname as seen in this example:<br />

<br />
<!--T:12--><br />
Once the software is installed, access the jail by its IP address in order to edit the ''/etc/rc.conf'' file within the jail so that the required services start when the jail is available:<br />
<br />
<!--T:13--><br />
{{txtbox|wiki|box='''warden chroot 10.0.0.1'''{{nbsp|58}}<br />
'''vi /etc/rc.conf'''}}<br />
<br />
<!--T:14--><br />
Add these two lines to that file:<br />
<br />
<!--T:15--><br />
{{txtbox|box=apache22_enable=”YES”{{nbsp|59}}<br>mysql_enable=”YES”}}<br />
<br />
<!--T:16--><br />
Save your edits then start the services:<br />
<br />
<!--T:17--><br />
{{txtbox|box='''usr/local/etc/rc.d/apache22 start'''<br>'''/usr/local/etc/rc.d/mysql-server start'''{{nbsp|42}}}}<br />
<br />
<!--T:18--><br />
Verify that you can reach the web server by typing the IP address of the jail into a web browser. You should receive a "It works!" message. You will need to first edit ''/etc/pf.conf'' in order to allow incoming TCP port 80 using if you use a web browser on a different computer. An example would be to add a line to the "Nic specific rules" section:<br />
<br />
<!--T:19--><br />
{{txtbox|box=pass in quick on re0 proto tcp from any to (re0) port 80 keep state{{nbsp|13}}}}<br />
<br />
<!--T:20--><br />
You may wish to replace ''any'' with just the IP addresses of the systems on your network. ''re0'' should be replaced with the interface used by the jail.<br />
<br />
=== Configuring ownCloud === <!--T:21--><br />
<br />
<!--T:22--><br />
You are now ready to download and configure ownCloud. If you are using a traditional jail on your desktop, go to Tools -> Launch Terminal to access the jail's command line. If you are using TrueOS®, use the '''warden chroot''' command to access the command line of the jail.<br />
{{txtbox|box='''cd /usr/local/www/apache22/data'''<br>'''fetch {{http}}download.owncloud.org/releases/owncloud-4.0.7.tar.bz2'''{{nbsp|14}}<br>'''tar xzvf owncloud-4.0.7.tar.bz2'''<br>'''chown -R www:www owncloud'''<br><br>'''mysql -u root'''<br>mysql> '''create database owncloud;'''<br>mysql> '''grant all on owncloud.* to ''ocuser''@localhost identified by "''mypass''";'''<br>mysql> '''quit'''<br />

<br />
<!--T:25--><br />
Test your changes from a web browser by adding "owncloud" to the end of the IP address of the jail. For example, type ''{{http}}10.0.0.1/owncloud/.'' You should see the setup screen shown in Figure 9.9c.<br />
<br />
<!--T:26--><br />

<br />
<!--T:27--><br />
Input the name of the user and password that will be used to administer ownCloud, then click the "<br />
"Advanced" button. In the advanced settings, click the "MySQL" tab and input the MySQL username, password, and database name that you configured previously. Click the “Finish setup” button to save your changes and enter your new cloud interface -- shown in Figure 9.9d.<br />
<br />
<!--T:28--><br />
Click the left panel of the interface to access a type of media. For example, if you click "Files" and then the "New" button, you can upload a file, folder, or from a URL. If you click "Contacts", you can add a contact or import/export the address book. <br />
<br />
<!--T:29--><br />
Click the "Settings" icon at the bottom of the left panel to add users, configure applications, change the administrative configuration, and to access "Help".<br />

The '''pc-thinclient''' script has been improved for PC-BSD®&nbsp;9.1 by adding the following features:<br />
<br />
<!--T:3--><br />
* the ability to create an installation server. Now when you first initialize the '''pc-thinclient''' script, you will be asked if you want to setup a PXE Boot Desktop Server or a PXE Boot Install Server.<br />
<br />
<!--T:4--><br />
* when configuring a PXE Boot Install Server, all the necessary bits for PXE booting are taken care of, allowing you to prepare for PXE installs within minutes.<br />
<br />
<!--T:5--><br />
* the ability to create unattended installation scripts for the PXE Boot Install Server.<br />
<br />
<!--T:6--><br />
This section demonstrates how to configure and use both the PXE Boot Desktop Server and the PXE Boot Install Server.<br />
<br />
=== Creating a PXE Boot Desktop Server === <!--T:7--><br />
<br />
<!--T:8--><br />
A PC-BSD® PXE Boot Desktop Server allows you to automatically configure a network of {{citelink|wp|url=Diskless_node|txt=diskless computers}} where each computer has a network interface card capable of {{citelink|wp|url=Preboot_Execution_Environment|txt=PXE}} booting. When a client boots from their network interface instead of their hard disk, they automatically connect to the PXE Boot Desktop Server and receive a login window. Once authenticated, they can use PC-BSD®, even if PC-BSD® is not installed on their own computer and even if their computer does not have a hard drive. <br />
<br />
<!--T:9--><br />
To prepare your PC-BSD® system for a PXE Boot Desktop Server configuration, perform these tasks first: <br />
# If the diskless clients will require Internet access, install two network cards where one NIC is connected to the Internet and the other is connected to a private LAN from which the thin clients can PXE boot from.<br><br />
# The PC-BSD® system should have lots of RAM installed, especially if multiple clients will be connecting. It is recommended that you use a 64-bit system with as much RAM installed as possible.<br><br />
# If the ''/usr/ports/'' directory is empty or does not exist, install the ports collection using the "Fetch Ports Tree" button in the [[System Manager#Install FreeBSD Source and Ports|Tasks tab of System Manager]] or by typing '''portsnap fetch extract.''' <br><br />
# Set aside a few hours as the system will need to rebuild its world and the applications it needs in order to support the PXE environment. The script will automatically build a 32-bit environment (even on a 64-bit system) as most PXE boot clients are 32-bit.<br />
<br />
<!--T:10--><br />
To configure the PC-BSD® system as a PXE Boot Desktop Server, run the following script as the superuser:<br />
<br />
<!--T:11--><br />
{{txtbox|box='''pc-thinclient'''<br />
/usr/local/bin/pc-thinclient will install the components to convert this system into a thin-client server. <br />
Continue? (Y/N) '''y'''<br />
Do you wish to make this a remote X desktop server or install server?<br />
(r/i) '''r'''}}<br />
<br />
<!--T:12--><br />
If your intent is to install a PXE Boot Desktop Server, input '''r''' and press enter. If the DHCP server is not already installed, you will receive a configuration menu for compiling the DHCP port. You can press enter to accept the defaults. Once the DHCP server is installed, the tools needed in the PXE environment will be installed:<br />
<br />
<!--T:13--><br />
{{txtbox|box=Fetching FreeBSD environment... This may take a while...<br />
Extracting PC-BSD environment... This may take a while...<br />
Copying /usr/ports -> /usr/home/thinclient/usr/ports<br />
<snip very long output><br />
Setting up system for PXE booting...<br />
What NIC do you wish DHCPD to listen on? (I.E. re0) <br />
nic) '''em0'''}}<br />
<br />
<!--T:14--><br />
Input the FreeBSD device name of the interface that is attached to the local network containing the diskless workstations. This interface will run the DHCP server and should not be connected to a<br />
network with another DHCP server running. In the example shown here, the user has input the ''em0'' interface. If you are unsure of the device name, type '''ifconfig''' from another terminal.<br />
<br />
<!--T:15--><br />
The script will now configure the specified interface and start the required services:<br />
<br />
<!--T:16--><br />
{{txtbox|box=Starting /etc/rc.d/nfsd...OK<br />
Starting /etc/rc.d/inetd...OK<br />
Starting /usr/local/etc/rc.d/isc-dhcpd...OK<br />
<br />
You will now need to enable remote desktop.<br />
This can be done via the PC-BSD Control Panel -> GDM Configuration<br />
or by manually editing /usr/local/etc/gdm/custom.conf<br />
<br />
<!--T:17--><br />
Your system is now setup to do PXE booting!}} <br />
<br />
<!--T:18--><br />
Go to ''[[Control Panel]]'' ➜ ''[[GDM Configuration]]'' and check the box ''Enable XDMCP''. If you forget this step, clients will not be able to receive an X session when they connect.<br />
<br />
<!--T:19--><br />
The installation creates a chroot directory that contains a small PXE image that is used by clients to launch Xorg and connect to the PXE Boot Desktop Server. You can access this chroot by typing this command as the superuser:<br />
<br />
<!--T:20--><br />
{{txtbox|box='''chroot /usr/home/thinclient'''}}<br />
<br />
<!--T:21--><br />
Running '''pkg_info''' within the chroot will show which X components and drivers are available. Should you need to install additional video drivers, use '''pkg_add''' within the chroot. When you are finished using the chroot, type '''exit''' to leave it.<br />
<br />
<!--T:22--><br />
The thin client script installs and configures the following services:<br />
<br />
<!--T:23--><br />
'''NFS:''' the Network File System is a protocol for sharing files on a network. It has been configured to allow clients on the network attached to the interface that you specified to connect to the thin client server. Its configuration file is located in ''/etc/exports''.<br />
<br />
<!--T:24--><br />
'''TFTP:''' the Trivial File Transfer Protocol is a light-weight version of FTP used to transfer configuration or boot files between machines. The PXE network cards on the diskless computers will use TFTP to receive their configuration information. This service was enabled in ''/etc/inetd.conf'' with a home directory of ''/home/thinclient''.<br />
<br />
<!--T:25--><br />
'''DHCP:''' the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol is used to configure IP addressing info on the diskless workstations. It has been configured to assign addresses for the network attached to the interface that you specified. Its configuration file is located in ''/usr/local/etc/dhcpd.conf''. <br />
<br />
<!--T:26--><br />
The thin client script also creates the ''pxeboot'' user with the default password ''thinclient''. This username and password is used to save the working Xorg configuration files for each of the diskless computers. It is highly recommended that you change this password right away by running this command as the superuser:<br />
<br />
<!--T:27--><br />
{{txtbox|box='''passwd pxeboot'''}}<br />
<br />
<!--T:28--><br />
You will also need to create the users that will connect to the system. You can do so using [[User Manager]] or by typing '''adduser''' at the command line and following the prompts.<br />
<br />
==== Connecting to the PXE Boot Desktop Server ==== <!--T:29--> <br />
<br />
<!--T:30--><br />
After a successful installation and reboot of the PXE Boot Desktop Server, the DHCP service will be running on the NIC you specified. Make sure that this NIC and a PXE capable client are connected to the same hub or switch. When you boot up the client, PXE should automatically obtain an IP address and begin to load PC-BSD®. If it does not, review the boot order settings in the BIOS on the client to make sure that PXE is listed first.<br />
<br />
<!--T:31--><br />
After the boot process has finished, the client will be brought to this prompt:<br />
<br />
<!--T:32--><br />
{{txtbox|box=No saved xorg-config for this MAC: <MAC_Address><br />
Do you wish to setup a custom xorg.conf for this system? (Y/N)}}<br />
<br />
<!--T:33--><br />
If you wait 10 seconds, this message will timeout, and the client will bring up X in 1024x768 mode. If this is not the resolution that you wish to use, type "Y" at the prompt and hit enter to bring up the Xorg Configuration screen. In this menu, you will be able to setup your own custom ''xorg.conf'' file, auto-detect settings, and test the new configuration. When finished, choose "Save working config" to send this configuration to the PXE Boot Desktop Server. This will prompt for the password of the pxeboot user. Once authenticated, the file will be saved by the client's MAC address in ''/home/pxeboot/mnt/xorg-config/<mac>.conf''. The next time you boot the client, it will automatically use the saved ''xorg.conf'' file and bring the system to the PC-BSD® login screen.<br />
<br />
<!--T:34--><br />
{{note|width=40%|align=right|icon64=in order for the login to succeed, the user account must already exist on the PXE Boot Desktop Server.}}<br />
<br />
<!--T:35--><br />
The client's boot environment is located in ''/home/pxeboot''. This is mounted read-only during the PXE boot process to allow the client to bootup and create an XDCMP connection to the server.<br />
<br />
<!--T:36--><br />
Once logged in to the PXE Boot Desktop Server, using PC-BSD® will be the same as if you had installed PC-BSD® on the client system. You will be able to use [[Using AppCafe®|AppCafe®]] to install software and to save and use the files in your home directory.<br />
<br />
==== Uninstalling the PXE Boot Desktop Server ==== <!--T:37--> <br />
<br />
<!--T:38--><br />
Use the '''-remove''' option if you wish to uninstall the PXE Boot Desktop Server:<br />
<br />
<!--T:39--><br />
{{txtbox|box='''pc-thinclient -remove'''<br />
Removing /usr/home/thinclient}}<br />
<br />
<!--T:40--><br />
This will remove the PXE environment from the system. If you are finished using the PXE boot services, you can stop them using these commands:<br />
<br />
<!--T:41--><br />
{{txtbox|box='''service nfsd stop'''<br />
'''service inetd stop'''<br />
'''service isc-dhcpd stop'''}}<br />
<br />
<!--T:42--><br />
and prevent them from restarting by removing these lines from ''/etc/rc.conf:''<br />
<br />
<!--T:43--><br />
{{txtbox|box={{pound}} pc-thinclient configuration<br />
dhcpd_enable="YES"<br />
dhcpd_ifaces="em0"<br />
portmap_enable="YES"<br />
nfs_server_enable="YES"<br />
inetd_enable="YES"<br />
ifconfig_em0="192.168.2.2"}}<br />
<br />
<!--T:44--><br />
Your interface name and IP address may differ from those in the example.<br />
<br />
=== Creating a PXE Boot Install Server === <!--T:45--><br />
<br />
<!--T:46--><br />
A PC-BSD® PXE Boot Desktop Server can be used to install PC-BSD®, FreeBSD, or TrueOS® onto computers who connect to the server using PXE. The installations can be interactive or fully automated. The PXE Boot Desktop Server supports multiple, concurrent installations with the only limiting factor being the server's disk I/O and the network's bandwidth.<br />
<br />
<!--T:47--><br />
The installation of the PXE Boot Install Server starts the same way, except this time you select '''i''' when prompted:<br />
<br />
<!--T:48--><br />
{{txtbox|box='''pc-thinclient'''<br />
/usr/local/bin/pc-thinclient will install the components to convert this system into a thin-client server. <br />
Continue? (Y/N) '''y'''<br />
Do you wish to make this a remote X desktop server or install server?<br />
(r/i) '''i'''<br />
<br />
<!--T:49--><br />
Fetching FreeBSD environment... This may take a while...<br />
Extracting PC-BSD environment... This may take a while...<br />
Setting up system for PXE booting...<br />
What NIC do you wish DHCPD to listen on? (I.E. re0) <br />
nic) '''em0'''<br />
Starting /etc/rc.d/nfsd...OK<br />
Starting /etc/rc.d/inetd...OK<br />
Starting /usr/local/etc/rc.d/isc-dhcpd...OK<br />
<br />
<!--T:50--><br />
To perform system installations, place your custom pc-sysinstall scripts in:<br />
/usr/home/thinclient/installscripts<br />
An example script is provided in the above directory<br />
For unattended installations, save your pc-sysinstall script as:<br />
/usr/home/thinclient/installscripts/unattended.cfg<br />
Your system is now setup to do PXE booting!}} <br />
<br />
==== Connecting to and Customizing the PXE Boot Install Server ==== <!--T:51--><br />
<br />
<!--T:52--><br />
Once the PXE Boot Install Server is installed, try to PXE boot a client which is connected to the same network. If the client boots successfully, you will see the installation screen shown in Figure 9.8a.<br />
<br />
<!--T:53--><br />
[[File:Pxe.png|thumb|393px|'''Figure 9.8a: PXE Boot Installation Menu''']]<br />
<br />
<!--T:54--><br />
By default, selecting “install” from the boot menu will use the ''/usr/home/thinclient/installscripts/pc-sysinstall.example'' script which installs a basic FreeBSD system. In addition to starting an installation, this menu provides an emergency shell prompt. This can be useful if you have a system which can no longer boot and you wish to either access the disk's contents or attempt to repair the installation.<br />
<br />
<!--T:55--><br />
Any scripts that you create and place in the ''/usr/home/thinclient/installscripts/'' directory will be selectable as an installation option within the PXE client boot menu. Tables 5.4a and 5.4b in [[Creating an Automated Installation with pc-sysinstall]] summarize the available configuration options when creating an installation script. Alternately, every time you install PC-BSD, the installation script is automatically saved to ''/root/pc-sysinstall.cfg''. This means that if you wish to repeat an installation, you simply need to copy that file to the ''/usr/home/thinclient/installscripts/'' directory on the PXE Boot Install Server.<br />
<br />
<!--T:56--><br />
The PXE Boot Install Server also supports completely unattended installations. To perform fully-automated installations over the PXE interface, create a configuration script named ''/usr/home/thinclient/installscripts/unattended.cfg''. When a PXE client first boots, it checks for the existence of the ''unattended.cfg'' file, and if found, it will automatically use it for installation. Some caution should be taken when using this method since simply plugging a PXE boot client into the wrong LAN cable could cause it to be re-installed.<br />

<br />
<!--T:2--><br />
The installation files for PC-BSD® can be downloaded for free and end with an ''.iso'' or ''.img.bz2'' file extension. Depending upon the type of file you choose, the size will vary between ~650MB and ~3.5GB. This section will show you how to select which file to download and how to verify the downloaded file's checksum. The next section will demonstrate how to burn the file to bootable media.<br />
<br />
<!--T:3--><br />
If you have a slow download connection or wish to support the PC-BSD® project financially, you can purchase PC-BSD® DVDs from the {{citelink|url=http://www.freebsdmall.com/cgi-bin/fm/scan/su=yes/fi=prod_bsd/sf=sku/sf=title/sf=category/se=pcbsd|txt=FreeBSD Mall}}.<br />
<br />
<!--T:4--><br />
Members of the PC-BSD® project attend many IT conferences across the globe and give out PC-BSD® DVDs at conference booths. Visiting a PC-BSD® booth is an excellent way to meet other PC-BSD® users and to get your questions answered. Check the {{citelink|url=http://blog.pcbsd.org/|txt=PC-BSD® Blog}} to see if any events are happening near you. If you are organizing a PC-BSD® booth, {{citelink|url=http://pcbsd.org/en/support/|txt=contact us}} to arrange for DVDs.<br />
<br />
=== Selecting Which File to Download === <!--T:5--><br />
<br />
<!--T:6--><br />
When you go to the {{citelink|url=http://pcbsd.org/en/download.html|txt=Download}} page of the PC-BSD® website, you will find a number of files available for download:<br />
<br />
<!--T:7--><br />
* '''DVD:''' contains the full version of PC-BSD® (all system components, ports, and source); requires a DVD burner.<br />
<br />
<!--T:8--><br />
* '''USB:''' contains the full version of PC-BSD® (all system components, ports, and source); requires a USB memory stick or flash card.<br />
<br />
<!--T:9--><br />
* '''USB-lite:''' contains a stripped down version of PC-BSD® and the LXDE desktop (no system components, ports, source, or FreeBSD/TrueOS®); requires a USB memory stick or flash card.<br />
<br />
<!--T:10--><br />
* '''USB-live:''' contains a writable, live version of PC-BSD® running the LXDE desktop; requires a USB memory stick or flash card.<br />
<br />
<!--T:11--><br />
* '''VMware disk image:''' contains a pre-installed version of PC-BSD® with the GNOME, KDE, LXDE, Openbox, and XFCE desktops. See the section on [[Using VirtualBox#Using the Downloadable VirtualBox or VMWare Disk|Using VirtualBox]] for instructions on using the VMware disk image. <br />
<br />
<!--T:12--><br />
* '''VirtualBox disk:''' contains a pre-installed version of PC-BSD® with the GNOME, KDE, LXDE, Openbox, and XFCE desktops. See the section on [[Using VirtualBox#Using the Downloadable VirtualBox or VMWare Disk|Using VirtualBox]] for instructions on using the VirtualBox disk. <br />
<br />
<!--T:13--><br />
{{note|icon64=if your system is not able to boot from either a DVD or USB device and GRUB version 2 is installed, you can download the DVD ''.iso'' file and instruct GRUB to boot from it using these {{citelink|url=http://www.plop.at/en/ploplinux/iso.html|txt=instructions}}.}}<br />
<br />
<!--T:14--><br />
The larger the installation file size, the more components that come with that installation. <br />
<br />
<!--T:15--><br />
Regardless of which media you use to install PC-BSD®, you have the option to install additional components and applications after the installation using [[System Manager]] and [[Using AppCafe® | AppCafe®]].<br />
<br />
<!--T:16--><br />
There are two versions available for each type of file: one for 32-bit (i386) systems and one for 64-bit (amd64) systems. It is important that you download a file that matches your computer's processor type (32- or 64-bit). For example, if the system is 64-bit or has more than 4GB of RAM, download the amd64 version, even if the brand is not AMD. Each media type includes the ''pcbsd-media-details'' file which identifies the release version, architecture, media type, and date of creation. <br />
<br />
<!--T:17--><br />
{{note|icon64=If you plan to use VirtualBox to install PC-BSD®, you can install the 32-bit version, even if your computer is 64-bit. Depending upon your processor's capabilities, you may or may not be able to install the 64-bit version on a 64-bit system using VirtualBox.}}<br />
<br />
=== Data Integrity Check === <!--T:18--><br />
<br />
<!--T:19--><br />
After downloading the file that is correct for your architecture and installation media, it is a good idea to check that the file is exactly the same as the one on the PC-BSD® server. While downloading, a portion of the file may get damaged or lost, making the installation file unusable. Each [[Image:Fastsum1b.png|thumb|400px|'''Figure 2.4a: Verifying a Checksum Using FastSum''']] PC-BSD® download has an associated MD5 checksum which is listed next to the download link. If the checksum of the file you downloaded has the same number, your download was successful. If the MD5 numbers do not match, you should download the file again, preferably from a different mirror. In order to verify the checksum, you will need to use a checksum verification utility.<br />
<br />
<!--T:20--><br />
If you are currently using a Windows system, you can download and install the {{citelink|url=http://www.fastsum.com/|txt=FastSum}} utility. Once installed, launch the program and click the "Files" button, shown in Figure 2.4a, to browse to the location of your downloaded file.<br />
<br />
<!--T:21--><br />
Once the file is selected, click the green arrow to calculate the checksum. Once calculated, it will be listed in the "Checksum\State" column. The checksum is 87d28f726bd6b88c62433fddda16f089 in this example (though FastSum will capitalize the letters). <br />
<br />
<!--T:22--><br />
On Linux and BSD systems you can use the built-in '''md5''' (or '''md5sum''') command line tool to check the data integrity of the downloaded file. In this example, the file is located in the ''Downloads'' subdirectory. You should substitute the name and location of the file that you downloaded:<br />
<br />
<!--T:23--><br />
{{txtbox|pre|box='''md5 Downloads/PCBSD9.1-x64-DVD.iso '''<br />
MD5 (Downloads/PCBSD9.1-x64-DVD.iso) = 87d28f726bd6b88c62433fddda16f089}}<br />

What's New in 9.1
2013-04-25T12:51:04Z
<p>Drulavigne: </p>
<hr />
<div><noinclude>{{NavHeader|back=Goals and Features|forward=PC-BSD® Releases}}</noinclude><br />
The following features have been added to or improved for PC-BSD®&nbsp;9.1:<br />
<br />
* Based on FreeBSD&nbsp;9.1, which includes improved Intel video support. The {{Citelink|url=http://www.freebsd.org/releases/9.1R/relnotes.html|txt=Release&nbsp;Notes for FreeBSD&nbsp;9.1}} list the new features and drivers introduced in FreeBSD&nbsp;9.1.<!-- URL DOES NOT EXIST YET --><br />
<br />
* The PC-BSD® installer has been revamped to separate pre-installation tasks from post-installation tasks. This makes it easier to automate the roll-out of multiple installations because the end-user can configure their account information and display settings before logging in for the first time. <br />
<br />
* The PC-BSD® installer now sets its default settings according to the hardware installed. 64-bit systems containing over 2GB of RAM will default to the ZFS filesystem whereas 32-bit systems and any system containing less than 2GB of RAM will default to UFS+SUJ. Systems containing more than 2GB of RAM will default to the KDE desktop and all other systems will default to the LXDE desktop. A hardware compatibility icon within the installer allows the user to see at a glance if their video card, Ethernet card, wireless card, and sound card are compatible with PC-BSD®. <br />
<br />
* The PC-BSD® installer now provides a [[Install a Server | wizard to install either a vanilla FreeBSD server or a TrueOS® server]]. In addition to the base FreeBSD system provided by a vanilla FreeBSD server installation, the TrueOS® server edition adds the command line versions of [[PBI Manager]], [[Update Manager]], and [[Warden®]].<br />
<br />
* The ability to perform a network install has been removed from the graphical installer. The [[Creating an Automated Installation with pc-sysinstall | scriptable back-end]] still provides the variables needed for network installations.<br />
<br />
* The ZFS section of the PC-BSD® installer now allows you to set ZFS properties such as compression and quotas, create datasets, and import existing ZFS pools.<br />
<br />
* [[Multiple Boot Environments]] support allows systems formatted with ZFS to create alternate bootable snapshots. These can be used for testing purposes or to create a bootable backup of the boot environment before performing an upgrade.<br />
<br />
* [[Warden®]] is now built into the operating system and available through Control Panel. It can now be used to manage multiple jails.<br />
<br />
* Warden® now supports the creation of three types of jails: traditional FreeBSD jails for running network services, (a less secure) ports jail for safely installing and running FreeBSD ports/packages from your PC-BSD® system, and the installation of Linux within a jail.<br />
<br />
* Warden® now supports the management of ZFS snapshots on a per-jail basis.<br />
<br />
* [[Update Manager]] has been integrated into Warden®. Combined with the meta-package support, it is now easier than ever to install software into a jail and to keep that software up-to-date.<br />
<br />
* [[Using AppCafe® | AppCafe®]] now shows the number of available PBIs and supports automatic updating. <br />
<br />
* [[EasyPBI]] is now available through Control Panel, making it easier than ever to convert existing FreeBSD ports to PC-BSD® PBIs.<br />
<br />
* An [[About]] icon has been added to the Control Panel, making it easy to determine the PC-BSD® version, which desktops, and the version of X that have been installed.<br />
<br />
* An [[Active Directory & LDAP]] GUI has been added to Control Panel, allowing you to set the client information for connecting to Active Directory servers.<br />
<br />
* A [[Hardware Compatibility]] icon has been added to the control panel, providing a quick overview of detected hardware devices.<br />
<br />
* The [[GDM Configuration]] GUI has been added to Control Panel and can be used to configure auto-login and remote login through XDMCP.<br />
<br />
* A [[Mount Tray]] icon has been added to the Control Panel and System Tray, allowing easy access to USB drives.<br />
<br />
* A [[Sound Configuration]] icon has been added to the Control Panel and can be used to test sound or change the default audio device.<br />
<br />
* [[Network Configuration]] manager now supports 802.1x authentication over Ethernet networks.<br />
<br />
* [[Life Preserver]] now provides a browse button when creating an include or exclude filter.<br />
<br />
* [[Thin Client]] now allows you to create a PXE Boot Desktop Server or a PXE Boot Installation Server.<br />
<br />
* [[Bluetooth Manager]] has been added to the System Tray.<br />
<br />
* [[PC-BSD® Live Mode]] is now a USB-only, read/write image.<br />
<br />
* When ZFS formatting during installation, {{Citelink|url=http://ivoras.net/blog/tree/2011-01-01.freebsd-on-4k-sector-drives.html|txt=gnop 4K alignment}} is now used when creating the zpool. This results in a dramatic increase in performance. For this reason, it is recommended that users with existing ZFS installations re-install rather than upgrade in order to receive these performance benefits.<br />

<br />
<!--T:2--><br />
The "System Selection" screen, shown in Figure 3.3a, allows you to select the system components and window managers to install with PC-BSD®.<br />
[[File:Installer2c.png|thumb|393px|'''Figure 3.3a: Desktop Selection Screen''']]<br />
The default selection will depend upon the amount of RAM on the system. Systems containing more than 2GB of RAM will default to the KDE desktop and all other systems will default to the LXDE desktop. The arrow buttons can be used to browse through the primary window managers or to [[Install a Server | install a FreeBSD or TrueOS® server]] instead of a PC-BSD® desktop. Before leaving this screen, click the "Customize" button to review a larger selection of desktops and system components to install. If you right-click a component and select "View Packages", a pop-up menu will list the packages that are installed with that component.<br />
<br />
<!--T:3--><br />
After installation, you can return to this "Customize" screen in order to install or uninstall additional components by going to [[Control Panel]] ➜ [[System Manager]] ➜ [[System Manager#Install/Uninstall Desktops and System Components | System Packages]].<br />
<br />
<!--T:4--><br />
In the example shown in Figure 3.3b, the user clicked “Components” then right-clicked Development ➜ Development-Science to view the packages to be installed with this component. <br />
<br />
<!--T:5--><br />
[[File:Installer2d.png|thumb|393px|'''Figure 3.3b: Browsing Additional System Components''']]<br />

Hardware Requirements
2013-04-25T12:49:57Z

<br />
<!--T:1--><br />
{{NavHeader|back=Pre-Installation Tasks|forward=Laptops}}</noinclude><br />
<br />
<!--T:2--><br />
PC-BSD® has moderate hardware requirements and commonly uses less resources than its commercial counterparts. Before installing PC-BSD®, make sure that your hardware or virtual machine at least meets the minimum requirements. To get the most out of your PC-BSD® experience, refer to the recommended system requirements.<br />
<br />
=== Minimum System Requirements === <!--T:3--> <br />
<br />
<!--T:4--><br />
At a bare minimum, you need to meet these requirements in order to install PC-BSD®:<br />
<br />
<!--T:5--><br />
* Pentium II or higher<br />
<br />
<!--T:6--><br />
* 512 MB RAM <br />
<br />
<!--T:7--><br />
* 10GB of free hard drive space on a primary partition for a TrueOS® or FreeBSD server installation<br />
<br />
<!--T:8--><br />
* Network card<br />
<br />
=== Recommended System Requirements === <!--T:9--> <br />
<br />
<!--T:10--><br />
The following are the minimum recommended requirements. The more RAM and available disk space, the better your computing experience:<br />
<br />
<!--T:11--><br />
* Pentium 4 or higher<br />
<br />
<!--T:12--><br />
* 1024 MB of RAM<br />
<br />
<!--T:13--><br />
* 50GB of free hard drive space on a primary partition for a desktop installation<br />
<br />
<!--T:14--><br />
* Network card<br />
<br />
<!--T:15--><br />
* Sound card<br />
<br />
<!--T:16--><br />
* NVIDIA 3D accelerated video card <br />
<br />
<!--T:17--><br />
The PC-BSD installer's hardware check will display a warning message if the selected partition contains less than 20GB for a server installation or less than 50GB for a desktop installation.<br />
<br />
<!--T:18--><br />
You can never have too much RAM, so install as much as you can afford. To play modern video games, you should use a fast CPU. If you want to create a collection of tunes and movies on your computer, you will want a large hard disk drive which can be internal or external.<br />
<br />
=== Supported Processors === <!--T:19--><br />
<br />
<!--T:20--><br />
PC-BSD® should install on any system containing a 32-bit (also called i386) or 64-bit (also called amd64) processor. Despite the amd64 name, a 64-bit processor does '' '''not need''' '' to be manufactured by AMD in order to be supported. The {{citelink|url=http://www.freebsd.org/releases/9.1R/hardware.html#PROC|txt=FreeBSD Hardware Notes}} list the i386 and amd64 processors known to work.<br />
<br />
=== Supported Video Cards === <!--T:21--><br />
<br />
<!--T:22--><br />
Like most open source operating systems, PC-BSD® uses X.org drivers for graphics support. PC-BSD® will automatically detect the optimal video settings for supported video drivers. You can verify that your graphics hardware is supported by clicking the [[Hardware Compatibility]] icon within the installer or by accessing this utility from Control Panel when using [[PC-BSD® Live Mode|Live Mode]]. If this utility shows your video as VESA on a 32-bit system with an older NVIDIA card, you must install and use the legacy driver as described below.<br />
<br />
<!--T:23--><br />
Support for the major graphic vendors is as follows:<br />
<br />
<!--T:24--><br />
'''NVIDIA:''' if you want to use 3D acceleration, NVIDIA is currently the best supported as there is a native driver for PC-BSD®. If an NVIDIA video card is detected, an "nVidia settings" icon will be added to the Control Panel for managing NVIDIA settings. Some older NVIDIA cards on 32-bit systems require an older NVIDIA driver. If you suspect you have one of these cards, select the Hardware-Drivers ➜ NVIDIA-Legacy drivers [[System Selection Screen|during installation]] or afterwards using '''control panel ➜ [[System Manager#Install/Uninstall Desktops and System Components | System Manager]]'''.<br />
<br />
<!--T:25--><br />
'''Intel:''' as of 9.1, 3D acceleration on most Intel graphics is supported. Due to the current KMS support, you will not be able to switch between the graphical console and a virtual console using Crtl+Alt+F#. <br />
<br />
<!--T:26--><br />
'''ATI/Radeon:''' 3D acceleration will not work on ATI or Radeon cards until FreeBSD completes its TTM work (possibly in time for 9.2). You can still use these cards, but you will have to choose the 2D driver, and if that does not work, you will need to resort to using the Vesa driver. <br />
<br />
<!--T:27--><br />
'''Optimus:''' at this time {{citelink|url=https://github.com/Bumblebee-Project/Bumblebee/wiki/FAQ|txt=Bumblebee}} has not been ported to FreeBSD, meaning that there is no switching support between the two graphics adapters provided by Optimus. Optimus implementations vary, so PC-BSD® may or may not be able to successfully load a graphics driver on your hardware. If you get a blank screen after installation, check your BIOS to see if it has an option to disable one of the graphics adapters or to set “discrete” mode. If the BIOS does not provide a discrete mode, PC-BSD® will default to the 3D Intel driver and disable NVIDIA. This will change in the future when the NVIDIA driver supports Optimus.<br />
<br />
=== Wireless Cards === <!--T:28--><br />
<br />
<!--T:29--><br />
PC-BSD® has built-in support for dozens of wireless networking cards. You can check if your card has {{citelink|url=http://www.freebsd.org/releases/9.1R/hardware.html#WLAN|txt=a FreeBSD driver}}. If it does, it should "just work".<br />
<br />
<!--T:30--><br />
PC-BSD® will automatically detect available wireless networks for supported wireless devices. You can verify that your device is supported by clicking the [[Hardware Compatibility]] icon within the installer or by accessing this utility from Control Panel when using [[PC-BSD® Live Mode|Live Mode]]. If it an external wireless device, insert it before running the Hardware Compatibility utility. If your device is not detected, the [[Wireless Testing]] page has some information about drivers which have not been ported yet. It also contains instructions for converting a Microsoft driver to a FreeBSD kernel module, though results will vary by driver. Known missing wireless drivers are typically for the Broadcom and newer Realtek series of cards.<br />
<br />
<!--T:31--><br />
Certain Broadcom devices, typically found in cheap laptops, are quite buggy and can have lockups when in DMA mode. If the device freezes, try switching to PIO mode in the BIOS. Alternately, add the line ''hw.bwn.usedma=0'' to ''/boot/loader.conf'' and reboot to see if that makes a difference.<br />
<br />
=== Checking Hardware Compatibility === <!--T:32--><br />
<br />
<!--T:33--><br />
If you wish to check your hardware before installing PC-BSD®, a good place to start is the {{citelink|url=http://www.freebsd.org/releases/9.1R/hardware.html|txt=FreeBSD 9.1 Hardware Notes}}. <br />
<br />
<!--T:34--><br />
Another good resource is to run PC-BSD® in [[PC-BSD® Live Mode|Live Mode]]; that way you can test your various devices before committing to an install.<br />
<br />
<!--T:35--><br />
While most hardware "just works" with PC-BSD®, it is possible that you will run across a piece of hardware that does not. If you do, you can help improve hardware support for all PC-BSD® users by [[Report Bugs|reporting the problem]] so that it can be addressed by the developers. It should be remembered that PC-BSD® is really FreeBSD, meaning that any hardware that works on FreeBSD will work on PC-BSD®.<br />

<div><noinclude><translate><br />
<br />
<!--T:1--><br />
{{NavHeader|back=Advanced Installation Topics|forward=Convert a FreeBSD System to PC-BSD®}}</noinclude><br />
<br />
<!--T:2--><br />
The [[System Selection Screen]] of the PC-BSD® installer can be used to install a FreeBSD-based server operating system, rather than a PC-BSD® desktop operating system. This screen provides two server options:<br />
<br />
<!--T:3--><br />
[[File:Freebsd1c.png|thumb|393px|'''Figure 5.1a: Selecting to Install TrueOS®''']]<br />
<br />
<!--T:4--><br />
* '''FreeBSD Server:''' installs a basic, vanilla installation of FreeBSD. While the installation routine is different, the end result is the same as if one had installed FreeBSD from a FreeBSD media as it results in a minimal, command-line only FreeBSD server installation.<br />
<br />
<!--T:5--><br />
* '''TrueOS®:''' adds the following to a vanilla installation of FreeBSD: [[PBI Manager]], the command line version of '''[[Warden®#Using the Command Line Version of Warden® | warden]]''', and the command line versions of most of the [[Control Panel]] utilities. You will find those utilities in ''/usr/local/bin/pc-*''. It also installs this {{citelink|url=http://trac.pcbsd.org/browser/pcbsd/branches/9.1/build-files/metapkgsets/warden/pkgset/base-system/ports-list|txt=list}} of additional shells and utilities.<br />
<br />
<!--T:6--><br />
For a server installation, using the PC-BSD® installer rather than the FreeBSD installer offers several benefits:<br />
<br />
<!--T:7--><br />
* the ability to easily [[Disk Selection Screen#ZFS Layout | configure ZFS]] during installation<br />
<br />
<!--T:8--><br />
* the ability to configure encryption during installation<br />
<br />
<!--T:9--><br />
* the ability to configure ZFS [[Multiple Boot Environments]]<br />
<br />
<!--T:10--><br />
* a wizard (described in this section) is provided during installation to configure the server for first use.<br />
<br />
<!--T:11--><br />
To perform a server installation, [[Installing PC-BSD® | start the PC-BSD® installation]] as usual. When you get to the [[System Selection Screen]] of the installer, click the left arrow until either FreeBSD or TrueOS® is selected. In the example shown as in Figure 5.1a, the user has selected TrueOS® and the FreeBSD option is to the left of the selection. <br />
<br />
<!--T:12--><br />
Once selected, press "Next" to start the "Server Setup Wizard". The wizard is the same for either a FreeBSD or a TrueOS® installation.<br />
<br />
<!--T:13--><br />
Click "Next" to see the screen shown in Figure 5.1b.<br />
<br />
<!--T:14--><br />
[[File:Freebsd1b.png|thumb|393px|'''Figure 5.1b: Set the Root Password''']]<br />
<br />
<!--T:15--><br />
Input and confirm the root password which will be used for administrative or "superuser" access to the server, then click "Next" to proceed to the screen shown in Figure 5.1c.<br />
<br />
<!--T:16--><br />
[[File:Freebsd2a.png|thumb|393px|'''Figure 5.1c: Create the Primary User Account''']]<br />
<br />
<!--T:17--><br />
For security reasons, you should not login as the ''root'' user. For this reason, the wizard requires you to create a primary user account that will be used to login to the FreeBSD system. This account will automatically be added to the ''wheel'' group, allowing that user to '''su''' to the root account when administrative access is required.<br />
<br />
<!--T:18--><br />
This screen contains the following fields:<br />
<br />
<!--T:19--><br />
* '''Name:''' can contain capital letters and spaces.<br />
<br />
<!--T:20--><br />
* '''Username:''' the name used when logging in. Can not contain spaces and is case sensitive (e.g. Kris is a different username than kris).<br />
<br />
<!--T:21--><br />
* '''Password:''' the password used when logging in. You must type it twice in order to confirm it.<br />
<br />
<!--T:22--><br />
* '''Default shell:''' use the drop-down menu to select the '''csh''', '''tcsh''', or '''sh''' login shell.<br />
<br />
<!--T:23--><br />
When finished, click "Next" to proceed to the screen shown in Figure 5.1d.<br />
<br />
<!--T:24--><br />
[[File:Freebsd3a.png|thumb|393px|'''Figure 5.1d: Set the Hostname''']]<br />
<br />
<!--T:25--><br />
Input the system's hostname. If you will be using '''ssh''' to administer the system, check the box "Enable remote SSH login". Click "Next" to proceed to the network configuration screen shown in Figure 5.1e.<br />
<br />
<!--T:26--><br />
[[File:Freebsd4a.png|thumb|393px|'''Figure 5.1e: Configure the Network''']]<br />
<br />
<!--T:27--><br />
Use the "Network Interface" drop-down menu to select from the following:<br />
<br />
<!--T:28--><br />
* '''AUTO-DHCP-SLAAC:''' (default) will configure every active interface configured for DHCP and both IPv4 and IPv6<br />
<br />
<!--T:29--><br />
* '''AUTO-DHCP:''' will configure every active interface for DHCP and IPv4<br />
<br />
<!--T:30--><br />
* '''IPv6-SLAAC:''' will configure every active interface for DHCP and IPv6<br />
<br />
<!--T:31--><br />
Alternately, select the device name for the interface that you wish to manually configure and input the IPv4 and/or IPv6 addressing information. When finished, click "Next" to proceed to the screen shown in Figure 5.1f.<br />
<br />
<!--T:32--><br />
[[File:Freebsd5a.png|thumb|393px|'''Figure 5.1f: Install Source or Ports''']]<br />
<br />
<!--T:33--><br />
If you wish to install FreeBSD source or ports, check the associated box(es) then click "Finish" to exit the wizard.<br />
<br />
<!--T:34--><br />
If you are installing TrueOS®, you can use the "Customize" button to install server meta-packages. This screen, shown in Figure 5.1g, can be used to install packages such as MySQL, PostgreSQL, Samba, PHP, VirtualBox, Apache, and Lighttp.<br />
<br />
<!--T:35--><br />
[[File:Apps.png|thumb|393px|'''Figure 5.1g: Installing Server Applications into TrueOS®''']]<br />
<br />
<!--T:36--><br />
When you have saved your selections, click "Next" to proceed to the [[Disk Selection Screen]] in order to configure the system's disk(s).<br />
<br />
<!--T:37--><br />
Once the system is installed, it will boot to a command-line login prompt. Login using the primary user account that was configured during installation. You can now configure and use the server as you would any other FreeBSD server installation. The <br />
{{citelink|fbsdh|url=|txt=FreeBSD Handbook}} is an excellent reference for performing common FreeBSD server tasks.<br />

<noinclude>{{NavHeader|back=PBI Manager|forward=Update Manager}}</noinclude><br />
<br />
Beginning in February, 2013, PC-BSD® switched from the traditional FreeBSD ports system to [http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/pkgng-intro.html pkgng], the next generation package management system for FreeBSD. <br />
<br />
{{note|icon64= Users of PC-BSD® 9.1-RELEASE will not be affected by this change unless they upgrade or install a [[Using a Rolling Release| rolling release]].}}<br />
<br />
All of the PC-BSD® utilities that deal with installing or updating software now use the pkgng system. This allows users to safely install non-PBI software from the command line without that software being deleted by a system upgrade.<br />
<br />
Since FreeBSD does not have an official pkgng repository yet, the PC-BSD® project provides its own repository containing all of the packages that can be built using pkgng.<br />
<br />
PC-BSD® provides a custom command, '''pc-pkg''', which is a small wrapper to '''pkg'''. When '''pc-pkg''' is used with the '''install''' or '''upgrade''' flags, it will automatically connect to the PC-BSD® pkgng repository using the integrated [http://aria2.sourceforge.net/ aria2] downloader utility, which can significantly reduce download speeds over a slow link.<br />
<br />
If you are used to using the traditional FreeBSD package system, you will notice that the commands used to install and manage software differ slightly. For example, instead of using '''pkg_add''' to install a package from a remote repository, use '''pkg install''' or '''pc-pkg install''' (notice there is now a space instead of an underscore). Type '''man pkg''' to see a list of the available commands. Once you know the name of a command, you can use the built-in help system to get more information about that command. For example, to learn more about '''pkg install''', type '''pkg help install'''.<br />

Using a Rolling Release

<!--T:3--><br />
<noinclude>{{NavHeader|back=Convert a FreeBSD System to PC-BSD® |forward=Dual Booting}}</noinclude><br />
<br />
<!--T:1--><br />
In February, 2013, PC-BSD® switched to a rolling release model. This is intended to make it easier for users to keep the packages that came with the operating system up-to-date and to make new features available for testing before the next major version is released.<br />
<br />
<!--T:4--><br />
The rolling release model is optional. This means that users can choose to either remain on a RELEASE version or to upgrade to a rolling release. Users that remain on RELEASE will still be notified of security updates and updates to software installed using AppCafe®, however they will not receive updates to the packages installed with the operating system or any new features until they upgrade to the next RELEASE version.<br />
<br />
<!--T:5--><br />
Users who wish to install a version of PC-BSD® which contains the latest operating system software and features can choose to install the latest rolling release instead of the 9.1-RELEASE version. <br />
<br />
<!--T:6--><br />
The rest of this section will demonstrate how to upgrade to a rolling release and how to install a rolling release.<br />
<br />
<!--T:7--><br />
{{note|icon64=The rolling release model is new to PC-BSD® and glitches should be expected. Users who prefer stability over the latest versions of software and who do not wish to test new features should stay on RELEASE. Users who like to have the latest versions of software and who are willing to look for and to [[Report Bugs |report bugs]] should use the latest rolling release.}}<br />
<br />
=== Upgrading a 9.1-RELEASE System to a Rolling Release === <!--T:8--><br />

<!--T:1--><br />
In February, 2013, PC-BSD® switched to a rolling release model. This is intended to make it easier for users to keep the packages that came with the operating system up-to-date and to make new features available for testing before the next major version is released.<br />
<br />
The rolling release model is optional. This means that users can choose to either remain on a RELEASE version or to upgrade to a rolling release. Users that remain on RELEASE will still be notified of security updates and updates to software installed using AppCafe®, however they will not receive updates to the packages installed with the operating system or any new features until they upgrade to the next RELEASE version.<br />
<br />
Users who wish to install a version of PC-BSD® which contains the latest operating system software and features can choose to install the latest rolling release instead of the 9.1-RELEASE version. <br />
<br />
The rest of this section will demonstrate how to upgrade to a rolling release and how to install a rolling release.<br />
<br />
{{note|icon64=The rolling release model is new to PC-BSD® and glitches should be expected. Users who prefer stability over the latest versions of software and who do not wish to test new features should stay on RELEASE. Users who like to have the latest versions of software and who are willing to look for and to [[Report Bugs |report bugs]] should use the latest rolling release.}}<br />

=== Upgrading a 9.1-RELEASE System to a Rolling Release ===<br />
<br />
To upgrade a 9.1-RELEASE system to a rolling release, become the superuser and edit the file<br />
''/usr/local/share/pcbsd/pc-updatemanager/conf/sysupdate.conf''. Change this line:<br />
<br />
PATCHSET: pcbsd<br />
<br />
to<br />
<br />
PATCHSET: pcbsdtest<br />
<br />
Once the edit is saved, you can use either [[Update Manager]] or [[Meta Package Manager | '''pc-updatemanager''']] to upgrade to the latest rolling release.<br />
<br />
As new rolling releases become available, they will appear in Update Manager. An announcement will also be made to the [http://blog.pcbsd.org|PC-BSD® blog], indicating which features are new in this rolling release and any known caveats. If you find a bug in a rolling release, either leave a comment on the associated blog post or send an email with the details to the [http://lists.pcbsd.org/mailman/listinfo/testing testing mailing list].<br />
<br />
{{note|icon64= As with any upgrade, always backup your data first. [[Life Preserver]] can be used to backup your home directory to another system in your network.}}<br />
<br />
=== Installing a Rolling Release ===<br />
<br />
To install a rolling release from DVD or USB media, or to try a live USB image, select the desired architecture and media type from this [http://mirrors.isc.org/pub/pcbsd/9.1-RELEASE/ FTP server]. Rolling releases will always have a date in the media name and you should choose the most recent date.<br />
<br />
Once installed, a rolling release will automatically notify you when a newer rolling release becomes available. <br />

In February, 2013, PC-BSD® switched to a rolling release model. This is intended to make it easier for users to keep the packages that came with the operating system up-to-date and to make new features available for testing before the next major version is released.<br />
<br />
The rolling release model is optional. This means that users can choose to either remain on a RELEASE version or to upgrade to a rolling release. Users that remain on RELEASE will still be notified of security updates and updates to software installed using AppCafe®, however they will not receive updates to the packages installed with the operating system or any new features until they upgrade to the next RELEASE version.<br />
<br />
Users who wish to install a version of PC-BSD® which contains the latest operating system software and features can choose to install the latest rolling release instead of the 9.1-RELEASE version. <br />
<br />
The rest of this section will demonstrate how to upgrade to a rolling release and how to install a rolling release.<br />

<br />
<!--T:2--><br />
The following features have been added since PC-BSD® 9.1 was released on December 18, 2012. Users who wish to test or take advantage of these features can either install or upgrade to a [[Using a Rolling Release|rolling release]]. Once the upcoming 9.2 release cycle begins, these features will be incorporated into that version of PC-BSD®.<br />
<br />
<!--T:5--><br />
Here is a list of the new features:<br />
<br />
<!--T:7--><br />
* [[EasyPBI2|EasyPBI]] has been revamped as version 2, making it even easier to create complex PBIs.<br />
<br />
<!--T:8--><br />
* It is now possible to easily [[Convert a FreeBSD System to PC-BSD®]].<br />
<br />
<!--T:9--><br />
* The GDM login manager has been replaced with the BSD-licensed [[PCDM]].<br />
<br />
* The system has changed from the traditional ports system to [[Using pkgng|pkgng]] and all of the PC-BSD® utilities that deal with installing or updating software now use pkgng. This means that you can now safely install non-PBI software from the command line and that a system upgrade will no longer delete non-PBI software.<br />
<br />
* The PC-BSD® utilities that deal with installing software or updates now use [http://aria2.sourceforge.net/ aria2] which greatly increases download speed over slow links. aria2 achieves this by downloading a file from multiple sources over multiple protocols in order to utilize the maximum download bandwidth. The '''pc-pkg''' command has been added as a wrapper script to '''pkg'''. Use '''pc-pkg''' if you wish to increase your download speed when installing or upgrading pkgng packages.<br />
