My suggestion is to not use Ventoy when installing GhostBSD. Here are my recommended steps: (1) Clear the partitions and data from your pendrive. (2) Use the dd command to install the GhostBSD ISO to the pendrive. (3) Restart your computer and enter BIOS. (4) Select the option to boot the pendrive a...

Remember, with a soft-rolling BSD distribution, using the latest available ISO is important. That said, the simplest and perhaps quickest solution is to spend money for a 4GiB USB flash drive (pendrive). Installing the latest available GhostBSD ISO file to a dedicated USB flash drive for GhostBSD wi...

We need to duplicate your steps to reproduce the issue. Can you tell us the steps and the outcome which you experienced?

While rEFInd is available for end users to install, it is really up to the end user to know how to use it correctly. https://www.rodsbooks.com/refind/ is a good resource for tho...

Thanks! I had forgotten that. I'll update that repository over the next few weeks.

From what I can see, OpenRC's latest version is 0.42.1. However, GhostBSD's OpenRC code does not align closely with OpenRC 0.42.1. TrueOS' OpenRC appears to have been a fork that never merged with OpenRC's (github.com/openrc/openrc) main (i.e. master) branch. I am hoping to correct this over the com...

The Material Shell provides a nice workflow. https://github.com/material-shell/material-shell

I like it better than KDE.

I think this is a good idea. Thanks!
It helps to limit the distractions.
