Update 3/30/11: As of 3/30, and running on FreeBSD 8.2, I did not need to find glibc manually, it just loaded first try. Note: I had to find glibc-common online and manually load into distfiles when I first tried to install on 8.1. I’ll leave the details of installing ports to you, which you can find online on other sites. (where I will store my Crashplan data)īelow I mention “install some/port”, which is not intended to be aÂ literalÂ command. Also, this doesn’t seem to matter for installation purposes, but my system also runs with ZFS on a GPT root mirror, with other ZFS pools on the system as well using RAIDz2.

Note, this install is on a FreeBSD 8.1-RELEASE system. Greg’s How-to: How to install Crashplan on FreeBSD!
