In article <c36354d78a531d7836540c7e2f805478@kathe.in> you write: >is the newer generation of apple hardware, especially the mac pro, well >supported by freebsd? I doubt it. FreeBSD runs quite well under Virtualbox on a Mac. For a lot of purposes that's just as good. I have FreeBSD on my Mac with the Mac's native filesystem NFS mounted on SD, ssh into the BSD virtual machine for a terminal session, and BSD applications use the Mac's XQuartz X server for windowing applications. I wouldn't use it as a production server (even under MacOS, it's a laptop after all) but it works great for development and testing and running programs that work better on BSD than MacOS.
