https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=288523 Bug ID: 288523 Summary: FreeBSD handbook chapter 12: outdated debootstrap recomendation Product: Documentation Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Some People Priority: --- Component: Website Assignee: doc@FreeBSD.org Reporter: mikael@oxcrag.net In chapter 12.3.3 of the FreeBSD handbook, on using a Ubuntu userland in the Linuxulator, the recommended command is `debootstrap focal /compat/ubuntu`. Focal is EOL since the end of May 2025 so should no longer be the recommended version. Since there is no apparent way of installing Noble with debootstrap currently, the correct example command until that happens should be `debootstrap jammy /compat/ubuntu`. Also the list of Ubuntu repositories to be placed in /etc/apt/sources.list in the Linuxulator chroot environment, will need to have focal replaced with jammy. In the `uname -s -r -m` example, a current (14.3-RELEASE-p1) version of FreeBSD outputs `Linux 5.15.0 x86_64` on the appropriate architecture. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.home | help
