Cencorship, as pericunaere curses in the win$ section, so there's some big brother filtering the ""ncurses.tgz" g marking as [deleted].
sorry for late reply, but let's change to another topic afterwards.
I precompiled a NO-DEBUG kernel from /usr/src as uname -a:
FreeBSD freeBSD-CURRENT 13.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 13.0-CURRENT #5 r368997: Tue Jan 12 13:46:33 CET 2021 lizbeth@freeBSD-CURRENT:/usr/obj/usr/src/amd64.amd64/sys/LIZBETH amd64
whenever I do a
svn up /usr/src
I get
svn: warning: cannot set LC_CTYPE locale
svn: warning: environment variable LANG is de_AT
svn: warning: please check that your locale name is correct
Updating '/usr/src':
At revision 369021.
So, if someone is interested in daily projecting here, please take you the time and read further:
[SPOILER]
no output of changes but I wanna know where is being worked at the moment and on which architecture.
Colleges of netBSD having troubles to compile the rasperry pi 4 (armhf) for instance, same as the IoT-thing (needs two sd-cards and openBSD *.fs boot the kernel here but don't find root partition afterwards physically, in virtualization (on writeable .ISO and not an .IMG for the USB) but I get 'broken library c++' on both i386 and amd64 images when tryingto install a DM or even a XFCE-desktop (there it is: pkg_add -uvi for updating the system)at the runtime of the whole graphical environment, pitty, pitty...
NetBSD is good in a movement what XEN-development concerns and freeBSD shoulda be glad to have someone to introduce the virtualization kernel into the main construct of booting (as primary before the usual -CURRENTS flews out). Problems to be corrected in xen-freebsd@freebsd.org discussion concerning an UIMMU issue or so quite similar, forgotten at the moment, hopefully not the age of the PC... but XEN and BIOS does good together, UEFI is much more trickier, Haiku OS boots nearly every MBR but needs an extra image for UEFI boots. They had something where my old BTX-eyes looked like a car g: a 1920x1280 screen but with blue sparkeling line on the upper side (costs probably the same amount of electricity like BTC-mining, which is normally simply a fraud, tried to bet as I felt tired and looked for adrenaline, lost 7 bucks, but it is the future!). Every kernel does a lot of crypto like camelia, heimdal, sha512, gzip compression and anti-theft-virus-security options and it's I guess about 10% of booting progress. ACPIs are not standarized, this is what mobile customs lack and leads to the many differnent "just for thie one android" builds and make a spreading of a CUSTOM difficult. Who's really done this, is lineage OS and pixel OS, all others are depending on the device and the making date of the device sometimes.
So we get Amadrillis-GPUs on Flint OS, Fuchsia OS, Fyde OS and the upcoming generation of mobile systems. If google will hold on hands of this any longer, with the kern for android they heard on us to make it open-source, this is why I never got problems with android but with the monopol-diseaster at the OS-market. And iOS is to much unpersonal, expensive and not even rootable. So the pinephone with KDE Neon and Plasma is the only alternative at the moment.
In the meantime I re-compiled the 'HYPERVISOR hv' into the kern again (thrown out because of being Hyper, to be treated with Ritalin), but still slow in scraping between VM and host and saving a snapshot and so on with family-own VMs but also as /opts like osX (old and rare).
plasma5 and xfce4 updates were well done; I have now the comic-sign of a certain comic on the desktop; the ability of live-3D-backgrounds grows and plasma itself. Playing with thoughts of a Pinephone but not being flash and setup myself = half the joy and 200$, hmmm, poor, poor girl. I had the Ubuntu phone and it was really amazing but after two months the akku was dead suddenly.
The best thing I remembered was when Gates told us that there will never be a Windows 11, only new build-numbers, I thoughta, maybe the whole star is sinking, who knows? 30 years for a computer system is a whole epoché in computer-ages and bill is became older now and a bit more moderate, maybe I have no consequences for the upcoming anymore. I well remember the phase when I couldn't see a windows desktop on official companies, government, etc., and thought an slavery and school and things like this.
I have now freeBSD 13 on daily use and as main system for my notebook, being once again adopted with a new accumulator after 6 years of 24/7; got it at the age of 5, thrown out of the M$ imperia as too old (what windows eats on memory is really a resource-killer; OS-ware is small and intelligent in kernel as well as on all other runlevels, but doens't get always the X immediately, I use the DRM-driver but modesetting as the DRM flickers, getting some graphic errors sometimes. ), and then "her" life started to grow, doing a BIOS update now for weeks, but need a windows boot USB, that for us is a doesn't-work-without thing.
To avoid getting win (version: whatever) on the physical SSD (but no UEFI still?), I tried a lotta things and apps. The Windows USB creator or Rufus or an .APX for the brandmarked "windows to go" (no evaluation versions possible).
One USB-Stick was to slow and badly conecpted, leading to waiting times for 15 hours I gave up; the other stick now contains the "Hiren's Boot CD", also known as a variant of the Windows PE; suddenly not anymore being able to be downloaded (download of file simply doesn't start, tried on 8 servers) since August 2020; typically MS, I thoughta;
so pirate-bay helped out a bit, not being illegal but has it's grey circles sourroundings. My experience shown me that using a simple thing like a squash-fs is beeing made over a .VMDK virtual image, but our Virtualbox has no extension pack (and it isn't planed I guess because of xen-develpment (frequent) but I think the standard bhyve-hypervisor is on the way to loose finally in comparision to KVM.
....... so USB can't be used, as protocol 1.1 isn't supported since Vista anymore in Virtual Box. So I used linux on a USB stick for writing down with extension pack, but windows sign arrived, but no turning round of "hour glass" after kernel boot or a blank screen from beginning onwards.
I manually copied the important files and the "install.wim" (these were times were they had .CAB files for the sets), so it was a simply small pick-nick with an old enemy. You have to unpack the .zip to .iso and then make a virtual machine on an USB stick (you need two, one for linux distro and host like MX linux or antiX that is small and bring it to ''dd', then add - under debian or ubuntu - the program WOEUSB (woeusbgui), look if the other stick, where the PE should arrive isn't mounted (automounter!), write the image down with the proggie, that fascinates me, btw., then there's some active-making (attr. 'a' on fdisk) with guess now --- grub --- and the whole thing boots, well done, seeding torrent on ktorrent at the moment.
[SPOILER]
so if someone can help to let my machine show again updated files on the console, please don't hesitate to answer. Another problem: how do we call the thread here now? Admin should do but not deleting my loooooong post here, plz.
Thx a lotta for a good and running and old and wise system, dear kernel-inventor,
Lizbeth
