release announcement

We are excited to announce the release of GhostBSD 25.02-R14.3p2! This release continues our commitment to rock-solid stability by building on FreeBSD 14.3-RELEASE, bringing you the latest improvements from FreeBSD, including enhanced hardware support, security updates, kernel improvements, and enhanced wireless networking support. For complete details on FreeBSD 14.3 enhancements, see the FreeBSD 14.3-RELEASE notes.

We are excited to roll out GhostBSD 25.01-R14.2p1, our first release under a new versioning scheme and a commitment to rock-solid stability. After discussing with our contributors, we’ve moved from FreeBSD STABLE to FreeBSD RELEASE, building this version on 14.2-RELEASE-p1, the first patched update of FreeBSD 14.2. This shift, paired with a transparent naming format, promises a smoother, more predictable GhostBSD experience.

We’re excited to announce the release of GhostBSD 24.10.1! 

This release brings system updates from FreeBSD and better hardware compatibility with some old AMD Radeon and FirePro GPU. We resolved live session startup issues with Legacy BIOS and started to fix some issues with Update Station functionality. For a complete list of changes, check the changelog.

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.

First and foremost, I extend my heartfelt gratitude to all those who reported issues and contributed their time, effort, and expertise to enhance GhostBSD for this latest release.

This has been a long time since I have officially released an ISO. With all the difficulties and issues I encounter with the new Xorg version and old Nvidia drivers, this new ISO is overdue. 23.06.01 contains many bug fixes, security fixes, and feature improvements. For details, see the changelog below.

The last change to automount was untested, and the live iso was automating all internal drives and caused serious partitioning issues and installation problems. I am sorry to everyone who tried to install GHostBSD and had issues.

After five months, this new ISO is more than overdue. It contains many bug fixes, security fixes, feature improvements, software updates, and OS updates. For details, see the changelog below.
