Wed Jul 8 09:10:44 EDT 2015 Slept well, but went to bed way too late again. Slightly late for work, because I sat down to screw around with the RPi2/FreeBSD this morning. Low to mid seventies and partially cloudy today. Nice. Goals: Work: - Fix Tropo Done. - Implement a whitelist for squidGuard Nope. - Review LexisNexis invoice Done. - Add Lori's disaster plan updates Done. - Order two Pi 2's for testing/dev Done. - Write up stage 2 of Hazel Park network project Started. - Make notes on possible linux (Pi2) thin client build Started. Home: - Get some damn ports to compile cleanly on the Pi2 (gettext seems to be a problem for multiple packages) Done. tmux, sudo, vim, bash, and git compiled cleanly and installed, after a little futzing. - Go to bed early Earlier than the last couple of nights. Raspberry Pi 2 with FreeBSD is pretty much good. I'm copying files to the ssd now. Need to decide if I want to set up some type of dynamic dns.... Questions: - Can I get .htaccess to show some dotfiles? - How can I pipe text to an image (which I can then xsetroot)? { uname -a; echo ''; /sbin/ifconfig; uptime; } | convert -font Arial -pointsize 14 -extent 1024x768 -fill black -background lightblue text:- /tmp/status.png; xpmroot /tmp/status.png - How do I partition and format a drive on FreeBSD (a usb disk)? https://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/usb-disks.html https://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/disks-adding.html dmesg | grep -A6 umass Mine seems to be `/dev/da0`. gpart list - Odd. On FreeBSD, even after running `makewhatis`, doing 'man -k foo` gives: apropos: no whatis databases in /usr/share/man:/usr/local/man:... However, `apropos foo` and `whatis foo` return good results. Why?
