FreeBSD 14.2-RELEASE is officially recommended for new installations.

If you perform a new installation, I do recommend the switch to pkgbase – before exiting the installer for the operating system.

The switch is not difficult, now – and will become easier with future releases.

Your emphasis should be to minimise the traditional steps – in particular, do not rush to add a user. Things such as addition are, instead, easily performed after first boot of the installed system.

An ultra-condensed explanation:

a) install the OS
b) install the OS

– and the second installation negates the need for future use of freebsd-update.

Yes – pictured here – will give you the so-called chroot environment, in which you can complete the switch. There's a traditional command prompt.

Packaging of the OS became official more than a year ago; packages are maintained by the Primary Release Engineering Team; freebsd-update is an axe candidate for 15.0; and so on.

I'm disappointed with Dell & Brother.

I have a Brother multifunction laser #printer, rebadged as Dell. It works fine, except printing from #Android inverses black and white.
#Dell & #Brother have released #firmware updates to fix the #bug.
But you must have a #Windows machine to install it. Not because of the firmware, but because the firmware #installer routine is hidden in 2 .exe files, and I think they check for windows drivers.

Why not publish #OS independent files to upload via FTP?
