[BackupPC-users] debian/freebsd

http://linux.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=09/04/05/222239

just an FYI for those that are fans of debian and of freebsd.

Debian is now shipping with a freebsd kernel. This will give a debian userland to the freebsd kernel, and access to debian packages.

I cant wait to see this mature as well as the ZFS freensd port. as these two stabilize this will create an excelent platform for backuppc. The FreeBSD kernel is top-notch and can certainly trade blows with the Linux kernel, debian is one of the dominant distributions (I am including durivitives like ubuntu) and ZFS is a filesystem that seems almost custom tailored to backuppc type workloads.
