I burned an image to USB from freebsd.org, install went through ok but ran into "startx" issues (Cannot run in framebuffer mod...). Tried a few suggestions on google but nothing worked;( I am trying to see if TrueOS is something I could use to install. But unable to find USB .img file for the latest TrueOS 18.X....I do see .iso but need .img for installation via USB on laptop. I am new to FreeBSD world, and would really like to get "a" desktop version running on my laptop (later need to download latest sources, build and play with latest versions). Any pointers/suggestions highly appreciated!
