    26/09/30 ⇒ The Forty-Four Switches on ls The standard asks ls for 26 switches. This machine gives it 44, and the GNU tree gives it 60. Every single one of them had a reason. Lean Software. https://vivianvoss.net/blog/forty-four-switches

    26/09/25 ⇒ NetBSD: Playing with disklabels Coming from DOS and Linux (and having largely ignored this on my OpenBSD systems -- yeah, shame on me), I'm not very familiar with the BSD disklabels. So let's have a look. https://movq.de/blog/postings/2026-09-25/0/POSTING-en.html

    26/09/29 ⇒ Installing Ubuntu 26.04 Server in an OpenBSD vmm(4) VM I wanted to run Ubuntu 26.04 Server inside an OpenBSD vmm(4) guest. OpenBSD’s VM console is serial only, and the Ubuntu Server ISO does not boot correctly on a serial console out of the box. This post shows how to rebuild the Ubuntu ISO with the right kernel and GRUB options so it installs cleanly through vmctl console. https://rsadowski.de/posts/2026/vmm-ubuntu26-setup/

    HAMMER time. This is the home for all things DragonflyBSD: HAMMER2, virtual kernels, performance tuning, and the unique design choices that set DragonflyBSD apart. A smaller community, but that makes every conversation count. Welcome!
