The FreeSBIE installer is written and maintained by another off-shoot of FreeBSD called DragonFlyBSD.ДЄfter selecting the keyboard layout and keyboard type I was asked to pick my default desktop environment.

The ncurses-based installation program looks a lot like a stock FreeBSD installation, only with a lot fewer questions/prompts to go through. The installer appearance did not differ from what IвЂ™m used to due to the many Slackware installs IвЂ™ve done in the past. The installation procedure only involves a couple of clicks to choose keyboard language, layout etc, so you should be OK accepting any defaults chosen by the installer. IвЂ™ll touch on that issue later in the review. Unfortunately I had issues grabbing screenshots, so I must direct you to the FreeSBIE screenshot gallery to see the eye candy. Once that was done, I rebooted the machine and waited for the FreeSBIE CD to take over and I was pleasantly surprised with a nice splash screen from вЂњThe Brothers BSDвЂќ. All that is needed is to set your BIOS to boot from CDROM.

Since this is a live CD distro, partitioning your drive(s) and traditional install routines are not an issue. That said, I donвЂ™t claim to be a *NIX guru but more of a power user. Unfortunately, I never get the chance to tinker with BSD as much as IвЂ™d like. As for any of the *BSDs, IвЂ™ve only tried FreeBSD 4.4, of which I own a boxed set that has been installed on a couple of systems at home and at my job.

The last PC I saved from an early grave is running Fedora Core 2, and I think that distribution may be replaced by FreeSBIE. If I can get my hands on some spare hardware, I will install a new distribution on it just to satisfy my curiosity for tinkering and fixing things. Other distributions that IвЂ™ve tried include Xandros 2.0, Debian, SuSe 7.3 and of course many versions of Slackware. My *NIX background is essentially Solaris and HP-UX for my job as an engineer at a phone company, but at home, IвЂ™m a pretty devoted Slackware user. ItвЂ™s a system I built with the following components: My test system is not the fastest by any means, but it has served me well for over 4 years. You can download the iso via Bittorrent here. After a little googling, I came across FreeSBIE 1.1 and downloaded the iso. I began to wonder if the same could be said of a FreeBSD-based live cd. I was amazed at its performance and wealth of applications available for development, networking, security, etc. IвЂ™ve just started using live-cd based distros after reading so much about Knoppix 3.6 and finally trying it. IвЂ™ve never even thought about writing a review of an OS before but I felt pretty compelled to do so after trying the FreeSBIE 1.1 Live CD. Version 1.1 of FreeSBIE, a FreeBSD Live CD, was released last week, and hereвЂ™s a first look.
