I read many posts here and try to avoid making big mistakes.
I installed the current NomadBSD to an USB device and from there to my internal SSD because of higher speed and convenience on my laptop.
I updated the packages with OctoPkg and everything works fine.
I don’t use freebsd-update for not mixing NomadBSD with FreeBSD. Is this right?
So I only use OctoPkg or pkg update to stay with an updated NomadBSD.
What to do with an upcoming new NomadBSD release and my installed system? With a reinstall, will all my data be deleted? (Of course I have a backup.) Or is it possible to use a “reinstall” and update my existing data without deleting them?
I would like to stay with NomadBSD. But I also wonder to install FreeBSD, which is more effort to get everything running. I used FreeBSD in the past, but I like the work of the NomadBSD developers and would like to stay with it.
