GhostBSD ARM64 porting from x86 code base (RISC-V in the future??)

  Create a GhostBSD USB SSD 500GB or larger size This is source file I used.  You have to set global environment variable DISK1 in fish shell  set -gx DISK1 /dev/da0 cat  ./create_ssd_GhostBSD.sh root@omid-ghostbsd-pc /h/o/ssd_test# cat ./create_ssd_Ghostbsd_da1.sh  #!/bin/sh set -e set -x echo " ${DISK1} <--- This is the DISK1 environmental variable, set example: DISK1=/dev/da1; export DISK1 " echo " Made for a 500GB size USB to NVMe style SSD disk style SSD disk  " # echo "If da1 already exists,  use  gpart destroy -F da1  or gpart destroy -F ${DISK1} to clean of partitions on da1 " sleep 6 gpart list ${DISK1} gpart status ${DISK1} gpart show -lp ${DISK1} echo "  create a GPT scheme on ${DISK1} hit ctrl-C to exit.

 How to Create and Distribute my own FreeBSD package Vermaden has an Excellent article on using FreeBSD Poudriere and setting up NGinx to serve packages.   I wrote a document about learning Packaging,  " Dead Simple Packaging How To "  ' for FreeBSD Dummies' http://ghostbsdarm64.hopto.org/packages/  Dead_Simple_Binary_Packaging_How_To_10 _6C.pdf   PDF Document describing How to Create and Distribute my own FreeBSD package for you to read and learn.  I placed some diagrams in there, to make it easy to understand. http://ghostbsdarm64.hopto.org/packages   my NGINX webserver directory for serving ghostbsd-arm64 packages to the world. http://ghostbsdarm64.hopto.org/packages/Guru_pdf_abiword.tar.gz   Here is source Abiword files for GURU shell script and python application  "Generate_User_Report_for_Upload" application for FreeBSD and GhostBSD.

Sound?  How do I hear thee? NOT!  Let me count the ways. The sounds of silence.   From electrical field to mechanical air vibrations to my ear. How do you set the sound to work on GhostBSD/FreeBSD ?  As a new user you have:   NO IDEA WHAT TO DO! What cryptic incantation do issue to appease the great monster in the VOID beyond my simple imagination.  On what sequence of characters to type into the command line? After having working  Ghos tBSD 23 with sound.  I upgraded to GhostBSD 24.01.01 with the GUI app Update-Station.   This app deleted some software apps and then re-installed the newer version of that software library and applications. virtual_oss_cmd /dev/dsp.ctl -f /dev/dsp1 That is the one SINGLE command line I issued to just magically turn on the sound.  Yes I had spent about 8 hours of time 3 months ago, trying to use USB Headphones on my laptop and on my Raspberry Pi 4B running both FreeBSD 14.0-RELEASE and GhostBSD-Arm64 14.0-STABLE to hear sounds from a test using MPG123 (
