You may download the ISO file immediately using the downloads page: http://freebsd-custom.wikidot.com/downloads-page This release is based on the latest XFCE desktop and includes a wide variety of desktop-related packages, like OpenOffice, abiword, gnumeric, firefox35, gimp, inkscape, evince and so on. The base system is 8.1-RELEASE. A few other small window managers are included like windowmaker, fluxbox and icewm. Make sure to read the README file before installation. Also note that installing linux related packages during initial setup needs a few more steps. This is due to differences in sysinstall between 7.X and 8.X releases. A detailed explanation is provided in the README file. As always, please report any problems, success stories, comments and criticisms to manolis@FreeBSD.org -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (Darwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkxWYlIACgkQZ/MxGm4PtJQGuQCfXv2zk1PIsQwHjXcYLYh7OAL8 FPQAn3kNgMwYzUJT/VYU/IQdiqU/xCZr =yqB+ -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
