GhostBSD, Glabel an external 240GB SSD USB 3.0 drive paritions installed with ghostbsd

Glabel, gpart, geom, or How to label GPT, GPTID partitions with out a /dev/da1p3 drive name. 

First, can you read between the lines from a manual pages that INFER a similar naming/numbering scheme exists that you can try out, yet there is not ONE example to guide you.  EXAMPLE:

Some of these  label names are carried over from the 'file label' name and not the given 'glabel' name in the listings above.

I get confused about which label goes with which partition.  So here are commands to use for finding information.

gpart status

gpart show

gpart show -l

gpart list

glabel list

# use the following command to see what labels are used with which devices.

ls -l  /dev/gpt /dev/gptid  /dev/diskid /dev/label  

# URL links to more information about glabel  and gpart commands

glabel  label -v rootfs_unirex_244g   /dev/diskid/DISK-333457EBD0F2p2

So the answer is to  Glabel your GPT UUID external USB 3.0 SSD drive,   Next use that as the first or 2nd line in the /etc/fstab file to name your SWAP Partition

/dev/label/swap-unirex-224  none    swap  sw 0   0

/dev/gpt/swap-unirex-224     none    swap  sw 0   0

swapon -aL   to  turn the swap on for all swap partitions listed in the file /etc/fstab

swapinfo  -m    will tell you how much of your swap space is used in megabytes.

swapinfo -m

Device          1M-blocks     Used    Avail Capacity

/dev/gpt/swap-unirex-224      4443      578     3864    13%

swapinfo -h in Human readable sizes

swapinfo -h

Device              Size     Used    Avail Capacity

/dev/gpt/swap-unirex-224     4.3G     578M     3.8G    13%

freecolor  -t   Is another useful tool that prints on the command line in colors red,grey, and green, a fuel gauge style  examples:  freecolor -o  ; freecolor -om;  freecolor -mt

swapctl  -l   Is another method to display your swap space memory usage

GhostBSD 22.01.26 minor problems I encountered. A little post to remember before I forget. How I fixed MY PROBLEMS.

GhostBSD 22.01.26 Networking, USB Audio Headset

Don't  Tell your  /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf   file  One Thing  ( Open Network, No WPA security needed) and tell your /etc/rc.conf  file that you need WPA & WPA2  security.   These two files must be on the same page, and only you can verify that YOU BIG NETWORK DUDE GUY have written them to match YOUR intention!! 

/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf

network={

 ssid="Swinomish Lodge Guest"

 key_mgmt=NONE

}

dsbmd_enable="YES"

#defaultrouter="172.22.220.1"

NONE for wpa_supplicant.conf and WPA removed   should match for the Open Network (no encryption)  DHCP Dynamic Host Control Protocol  ifconfig_wlan0 statement  to issue the correct sequence of networking commands to the wifi interface to connect with an OPEN network that does NOT need WPA passkey or password!   It took awhile to figure out that "WPA DHCP" was not correct and "DHCP"  is correct, because you see all the time the  "WPA DHCP"  when you are trying to connect with a passkey encoded  WPA WiFi networks.

service routing restart 

bsdconfig networking     Is quite a helpful tool to set your default gateway, your hostname, 

 Gaming with Steam on FreeBSD / GhostBSD

Suyimazu, automates the playing of Steam Games on FreeBSD/ GhostBSD eliminates all the manual setup to make a game playable on FreeBSD/ GhostBSD makes use of WINE.

Playing Steam games on FreeBSD / GhostBSD requires many manual steps for setting up an environment to play games. Suyimazu automates these manual steps for FreeBSD, making it easier and quicker to play a Steam game.

Back when Alexander88207 started using FreeBSD, there was no useful utility to setup games or launcher in wine, so he created one. Suyimazu was developed from pure fun, so please do not take it too seriously. Suyimazu was created with some inspiration from lutris, but is not meant to be a substitute.

Suyimazu is a launcher that makes it easy to run Windows games/launcher easily on FreeBSD by providing/applying the required fixes and workarounds.

The Windows emulation is provided by Wine.

The launcher menus are provided by Zenity
The most fixes that gets applied are provided by Winetricks

Special thanks go to the above mentioned projects :)

I've heard that it's very good, but it's different, that's why it's not very "used".

Different must mean STABILITY from 40+ years of history! Not very "used" on a desktop is possibly true.  GhostBSD is making a difference on the Desktop useage of FreeBSD 13.0 Operating System.

 Netflix uses FreeBSD for its video distribution, so networking is very fast and stable.  GhostBSD uses the MATE desktop GUI as you can see from the video above.   GhostBSD produces a stable, easy to use, graphical desktop that should change the "not very used" Myth.  You should test drive on your present PC hardware.  4Gbytes dram, 1.5Ghz CPU, a good external USB 3.0 SATA  SSD 120GB or larger makes a perfect method to run GhostBSD O/S on your present PC hardware.   You make the decision, is GhostBSD great to use as a stable desktop on your PC.  Many new users comment how easy, about 10 minutes to install on their PC.  You can test drive GhostBSD MATE 1.26 from a single USB 4GB flash drive.  GhostBSD loads from the USB flash drive into your ram memory.  You can remove the USB flash drive from the usb slot and continue to run and test operations. To install click the GBI icon, choose the use the full disk to write into that blank SSD you installed inside the PC or added externally with a USB 3.0 Sata Drive (hard disk or solid state disk )

Download the file  https://ghostbsd.org/download select latest version.   Burn/Write to a USB 4GB flash drive. Boot it up the live image, and try GhostBSD MATE for yourself.  GhostBSD is based on FreeBSD 13.0 Stable.  FreeBSD started in October 1993 all code rewritten with a 'Free' version of the AT&T Unix BSD version Code.  Look at the History graph.
