Ultimate FreeNAS Setup

FreeNAS

I started using FreeNAS in August 2013. It is fantastic piece of software and I have been really impressed by the upgrades just in the few months I've been using it. It looks like they recently went to a plugin system as of version 9 to make installing software easier for end users. I've ran into several issues related to plugins and user + group permissions so I decided to just use the available FreeBSD port system. After fiddling for a few days (now turned into months) I believe I have created something helpful for the community and anyone interested in picking up the port system. The sandbox nature of FreeNAS's jail system is especially helpful for playing around without having any consequence on your core system.

Here are straight-forward instructions to setting up a bunch of different software on FreeNAS. If you make a terrible error, just throw up another plugin sandbox and repeat.

A simple guide to have running the os161 kernel in Arch Linux

A simple guide to have running the os161 kernel in Arch Linux

This are some notes for the course OS 161 from ops-class.org (based on the OS 161 course from Harvard).

Getting started

You will need some tools. A nice Text Editor or a fancy IDE for C, I usually go for gedit, or sometimes vim.

Then you will need to install all the toolchain, the simulator for the course plus some other tools.

TOML vs YAML

Here's the canonical TOML example from the TOML README, and a YAML version of the same. Which looks nicer?
