Gemlog
The Neunix Gemlog is all about tech. Its articles cover mostly software-related topics (a lot of *BSD, a bit of illumos and some Linux) as well as everything else about the IT that I find time and motivation to write about. Focus is on FreeBSD as that is my daily driver OS but I try to touch on a lot of interesting things.
(Oct 2020) My first FreeBSD port: Castor
This post talks about Castor being my first committed FreeBSD port. I also describes the current version of Castor a little and presents some ideas on new features that I'd like to see.
I've decided to take some of the old articles from my former Weblog and make them available on Gemini as well. As a bonus you'll get to read slightly improved versions.
The beginning of my third blogging year was dedicated mostly to the E5 distribution experiment. After that follows articles on various topics: Licenses, RISC-V hardware, the
incident known as "shell shock" and more on the light-weight side of Linux. I also published my first kind of "political" article despite never wanting to do that on a tech b
log - but when there's danger to the freedom on the net I surely had to make a stand for sanity, didn't I?
In my second blogging year I mostly continued with more preparation for building my experimental Linux distro: A lot of applications that use various toolkits were tested and reviewed (I did not bring those posts over, though). Other than that I begun to be interested in the broader *nix family, peeking at some non-Linux operating systems and finally got my hands dirty digging into Linux systems and then beginning to build my own.
My first blogging year (or actually half year since I started in the second half of 2012): I'm writing about the Linux distribution experiment that I had in mind and evaluate available software to find good light-weight components to pick for the distro.
