Hello everyone I use FreeBSD to teach university courses and encourage students to use FreeBSD. Almost all of my students want to have the FreeBSD operating system on their laptops, either virtual or real, to start with, and I encounter the problem of installing a desktop environment on all laptops every day, and unfortunately, students still cannot install a simple environment like xfce or mate on their laptops despite spending a lot of time. Now I had a suggestion: Is it possible to provide a FreeBSD image with the X environment as the default, along with various ISO or IMG files or even VMs? So that students can automatically boot with the X environment by installing it? Otherwise, is it possible to include a script in the operating system so that users can automatically install a simple environment like XFCE by running that script? -- ---------------------------------------------------- *~ Mohamad, * *M.Sc.
