We’ve figured out a way to make it a gazillion times easier to install an operating system onto your APU.
Just follow along with our latest tutorial to create a bootable USB drive using Voyage Linux.
The pfSense® project was acquired last year by a US company called Electric Sheep Fencing LLC, and as a result the usage terms for the pfSense® software have changed.
We will be working over the next several weeks to ensure that our website is updated to comply with the new requirements.
We are pleased to begin offering our new range of Rident™ firewall and router software images for download, which are based on the pfSense® software and optimised for our hardware.
We apologise for any inconvenience or confusion caused.
This tutorial shows you how to back up your fit-PC2 workstation (or any USB-bootable computer) so you can quickly and easily restore your computer to its original state in the event of a hard drive failure, or infection by a trojan or virus.
It involves creating a new Linux partition on your existing hard drive, and works for both Windows and Linux workstations. All you need is a USB thumb drive and some free software.
Here at Yawarra, we have a pretty normal set up – workstations on each person’s desk and file servers with our important business data.
But a workstation still requires many hours and resources to build, and each workstation quickly morphs into a unique set of programs, configurations and preferences.
So we devised a quick and easy to way to backup each workstation using only a USB thumb drive and some creative partitioning.
