I am pleased to announce the release of GhostBSD 24.07.3!
This release fixes issues found in 24.07.1 and 24.07.2, bringing important enhancements, bug fixes, and new features. Key improvements include setting vital system and software packages, adding support to mark packages as vital, and including hgame in kld_list.
Notably, we resolved the legacy boot issue where the live session wouldn't start due to missing gzip in the BIOS /boot/loader. We’ve also ensured /etc/X11 is properly created during setup.
Thank you to everyone who reported these issues and helped us improve GhostBSD!
