Ghost BSD ☛ GhostBSD 25.01-R14.2p1 Now Available
We are excited to roll out GhostBSD 25.01-R14.2p1, our first release under a new versioning scheme and a commitment to rock-solid stability. After discussing with our contributors, we’ve moved from FreeBSD STABLE to FreeBSD RELEASE, building this version on 14.2-RELEASE-p1, the first patched update of FreeBSD 14.2. This shift, paired with a transparent naming format, promises a smoother, more predictable GhostBSD experience.
Our new versioning—25.01-R14.2p1—breaks down as: "25" for 2025, "01" as our patch version, "R" for RELEASE, "14.2" for the FreeBSD base, and "p1" for FreeBSD’s first patch level. This aligns us with FreeBSD’s release cycle, freeing us to focus on enhancing your desktop while keeping updates timely and stable.
Based on FreeBSD 14.2-RELEASE-p1, GhostBSD 25.01-R14.2p1 brings the MATE desktop to 1.28.2, debuts 2025 wallpapers, and delivers better hardware support and polish throughout. Here’s what’s in store!
