  • The base system has been changed to FreeBSD 13.1-RELEASE-p5.
  • Except for i386, We now provide two images for each supported achitecture.
    One which uses ZFS and one which uses UFS for the root filesystem.
  • The file systems used on the UFS version are now created with soft updates
    journaling enabled to reduce file system repair problems after a crash.
  • The automatic graphics driver detection has been improved. Support for
    VIA/Openchrome has been added. For Nvidia graphics card not supported by one
    of the Nvidia drivers nv is now used.
  • For better support of non-latin keyboard input and switching between
    layouts, IBus is now used.

  • In order to reduce image sizes, libreOffice and some multimedia packages
    have been removed.

    hanging when the hwpstate_intel driver is loaded.
