While there is much information available about new features, would very shortly after the desktop version of iXsystems better known as PC BSD 8.1 and some preliminary changes that have occurred in the same state: update to KDE 4.4.3, bug fixes in pc-sysinstall, new options in the Software Manager, added functionality in ZFS, among others pending. Just by watching it proving there are some snapshots of May available . There are also in FreeBSD 9.0 current for those who are encouraged to deal with more problems than usual PC-BSD.

    2. Apparently the iso image of PC-BSD snapshots has more errors than I burn the DVD iso I make this mistake and ruining discs, any suggestions?

    3. Try PCBSD8-STABLE-20100524-x86-usb.img or
    PCBSD8-STABLE-20100524-x64-usb.img

    Errors are checked with md5 files, not worth it if they continue not keep burning DVDs RW.

    7. ZFS brings virtues we doubt not, which demands much more RAM either. While Microsoft will insist on its WinFS file system is flash SSDs are a breeding ground for the still experimental Btrfs. For the 15 July would be the final version of PCBSD 8.1 (30 days +).

    8. AAa ok, I've heard of btffs, but the truth is not much, if not better than zfs format. I checado online format of the zfs and I read that is a format that is far better, I know it works, according to a test made by hitting a hard drive (had that format) connected it with a hammer and was still working ... but know if it's true. well as pc-bsd prove 8.1 with ufs and get it right after the stable version will set it up hope it does not trouble me ...

    9. the problem I had was to try to format the drive with zfs sought ad0 and marked error, and then tried to install on a partition ad0b2 and told me that this was not the assembly to install the base system, and that's when pulled no more ...
