Re: Where to start learing GhostBSD

Begin by understanding foundational concepts like file systems, processes, and networking. Learn the the process of shell scripting using sh/tcsh, and efficiently manage packages with pkg. Install GhostBSD on your preferred hardware or VM, and customize your desktop environment. Navigate the file system features (ZFS snapshot/rollback, bctl) and manipulate text and files using commands such as ls, vi, cd, cp, mv, cat, rm, sed, awk, and grep. Manage processes with ps and kill, research on the intricacies of the network stack and configure network interfaces, static IP addresses, and DNS resolvers, managing file permissions, users, and system services. Understand the nuances of network protocols and implement a firewall for robust security on your desktop. For comprehensive guidance, refer to the GhostBSD Wiki: https://wiki.ghostbsd.org/index.php/Installation_Guide, GhostBSD Documentation: https://ghostbsd-documentation-portal.r ... /en/latest, https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/handbook/, and the basics of Operating Systems design: https://en.m.wikibooks.org/wiki/Operating_System_Design.

Also there's always ChatGPT for interactive learning, but not reliable always, needs extra verification in that regard
