Live-distribution version NomadBSD 130R-20210508 is now available. It represents an edition of FreeBSD, adapted for use as a mobile desktop, bootable from a USB drive. The graphical environment is based on the Openbox window manager. DSBMD is used for mounting drives (supporting mounting CD9660, FAT, HFS+, NTFS, Ext2/3/4). The size of the boot image is 2.4 GB (x86_64).
In the new release, the base environment has been updated to FreeBSD 13.0. A new version numbering scheme has been proposed, corresponding to the format FFfX-YYYYMMDD, where 'FFf' reflects the underlying version number of FreeBSD, 'X' indicates the release type (ALPHA - A, BETA - B, RELEASE - R), and YYYYMMDD includes the build date. This new scheme will allow the creation of images based on different versions of FreeBSD and will clearly show when the release was prepared and based on which version of FreeBSD. Additionally, the transition to aligning disk partitions at a 1M boundary for improved write performance on Flash drives is noted. The issue with GLX on shutdown has been resolved. Drivers for VMware have been added.
