@lnxw48a1 Walt, have you tried to use any of the #BSD distros? I'm curious about it, but I'm likely not technical enough to deal with it. π ( #LinuxMint user, here. #Linux )
@bthall In the late #1990s and early #2000s, the #FreeBSD install process was only a little bit more difficult than the #Red_Hat / #Fedora process was.
Since then, nearly every #Linux distro has gotten way easier to install and I haven't kept track of #BSD installation processes (but for example, #ArchLinux and #NetBSD were both more difficult than average, while #Gentoo is easy, but very long).

@lnxw48a1 @bthall there's nothing hard about installing BSDs. Just answer the questions.
The only tricky part would be partitioning and dealing with pre-existing data; I highly suggest having an entire drive dedicated to whatever OS you are installing. If this isn't possible, you could always play in a virtual machine.
