Adventures in #FreeBSD:
Install FreeBSD
GELI, I don't know who you are or what you mean, but you're lovely
How do you scroll up in the console???
Mistyped username when setting it up. Oops.
usermod. Where's usermod??? pw usermod????? Umm, OKAY!?
Changed group name, changed user name, changed home dir
Oh, it didn't actually move the home dir
No problems, cd /home; mv oldname newname
WHAT DO YOU MEAN, YOU CAN'T MV IT
Fine, mkdir /home/newname
NO?? WHAT.
Fine, pw usermod yadda yadda make new homedir
Homedir is created, but blank.
cd /home/oldname; mv -n * ../newname
Why is this taking so long
HOLY CRAP ARE YOU ACTUALLY COPYING ALL THOSE FILES?!? WHY?!?!?
zfs, I love and respect you. I just don't understand you. X'D
Oh, I have to install drm video drivers and enable them to get a GUI, even for Wayland. Of course. Totally normal FreeBSD things.
At least the handbook kicks butt, and is mostly accurate, compared to "we wrote this for Linux to weeks ago and it's already out of date. Oh, and even when it was new, it only applied to 15% of all distros"
