    <description>Created by three guys who love BSD, we cover the latest news and have an extensive series of tutorials, as well as interviews with various people from all areas of the BSD community. It also serves as a platform for support and questions. We love and advocate FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD, DragonFlyBSD and TrueOS. Our show aims to be helpful and informative for new users that want to learn about them, but still be entertaining for the people who are already pros. The show airs on Wednesdays at 2:00PM (US Eastern time) and the edited version is usually up the following day.</description>

  <description>&lt;p&gt;The world’s first OpenZFS based live image, FreeBSD Subversion to Git Migration video, FreeBSD Instant-workstation 2020, testing the shutdown mechanism, login_ldap added to OpenBSD, and more&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;NOTES&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;
This episode of BSDNow is brought to you by &lt;a href="https://www.tarsnap.com/bsdnow" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Tarsnap&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Headlines&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.furybsd.org/furybsd-2020-q3-the-worlds-first-openzfs-based-live-image/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;FuryBSD 2020-Q3 The world’s first OpenZFS based live image&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;FuryBSD is a tool to test drive stock FreeBSD desktop images in read write mode to see if it will work for you before installing.  In order to provide the most reliable experience possible while preserving the integrity of the system the LiveCD now leverages ZFS, compression, replication, a memory file system, and reroot (pivot root).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;hr&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;&lt;a href="https://bsdimp.blogspot.com/2020/09/freebsd-subversion-to-git-migration.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;FreeBSD Subversion to Git Migration: Pt 1 Why?&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;FreeBSD moving to Git: Why?  With luck, I'll be writing a few blogs on FreeBSD's move to git later this year. Today, we'll start with "why"?&lt;br&gt;
&lt;a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lx9lKr_M-DI" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Video from Warner Losh&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;&lt;a href="https://euroquis.nl/freebsd/2020/09/17/instant-workstation.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;FreeBSD Instant-workstation 2020&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A little over a year ago I published an instant-workstation script for FreeBSD. The idea is to have an installed FreeBSD system, then run a shell script that uses only base-system utilities and installs and configures a workstation setup for you.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;hr&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;&lt;a href="https://dan.langille.org/2020/09/10/nut-testing-the-shutdown-mechanism/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;nut – testing the shutdown mechanism&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Following on from my recent nut setup, this is the second in a series of three posts.&lt;br&gt;
The next post will deal with adjusting startup and shutdown times to be sure everything proceeds as required.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;hr&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;&lt;a href="https://undeadly.org/cgi?action=article;sid=20200913081040" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;login_ldap added to OpenBSD -current&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;With this commit, Martijn van Duren (martijn@) added login_ldap(8) to -current&lt;/p&gt;
