These architectures are well-supported. Most modern PCs, including those with Intel(R) processors, use **amd64**. Embedded devices and single-board computers (SBCs) such as the Raspberry Pi 3 and 4, ESPRESSObin, as well as many Allwinner and Rockchip boards, use **aarch64**. For all other architectures, please see the link:../platforms/#_supported_platforms[table of supported platforms]. [[choose-image]] == Choosing an Image For the FreeBSD installer: formats include CD (disc1), DVD (dvd1), and network install (bootonly) sized ISO, plus regular and mini USB memory sticks. For virtual machines: virtual disk images have FreeBSD preinstalled. For embedded platforms: SD card images are available.

Before downloading an entire distribution, please read the link:{handbook}bsdinstall/[installation guide]. If you plan to get FreeBSD via FTP or HTTPS, check the FreeBSD Handbook for link:{handbook}mirrors/#mirrors[suitable mirrors] for your region. [[distribution]] === Purchase FreeBSD Media FreeBSD can be acquired on CD-ROM or DVD from https://www.freebsdmall.com/[FreeBSD Mall], and other link:{handbook}mirrors/#mirrors-cdrom[CD-ROM and DVD publishers]. [[past]] === Past Releases Please browse the http://ftp-archive.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD-Archive/old-releases/[FTP archive]. [[derived]] === FreeBSD-derived Operating System Distributions FreeBSD is widely used as a building block for other commercial and open-source operating systems. The projects below are of particular interest. * https://www.truenas.com/[TrueNAS] is network attached storage (NAS) software that shares and protects data from modern-day threats like ransomware and malware. TrueNAS makes it easy for users and client devices to access shared data through virtually any sharing protocol. * https://ghostbsd.org[GhostBSD] is derived from FreeBSD, and uses the GTK environment to provide a beautiful look and a comfortable experience on a modern BSD platform offering a natural and native UNIX(R)-like work environment. * https://www.midnightbsd.org[MidnightBSD] was forked from FreeBSD 6.1 beta, and continues to use parts of more recent FreeBSD code bases. Developed with desktop users in mind, MidnightBSD includes everything that you would expect for your daily tasks: mail, web browsing, word processing, gaming, and much more. * https://www.nomadbsd.org[NomadBSD] is a persistent live system for USB flash drives, based on FreeBSD. Together with automatic hardware detection and setup, it is configured to be used as a desktop system that works out of the box, but can also be used for data recovery, for educational purposes, or to test FreeBSD hardware compatibility. * https://www.pfsense.org/[pfSense] is a FreeBSD-based customized distribution tailored for use as a firewall and router. [[apps]] === Applications and Utility Software ==== The Ports Collection A diverse collection of utility and application software that has been _ported_ to FreeBSD. * link:../ports/[About FreeBSD Ports] * https://www.freshports.org/[FreshPorts - a more advanced web interface to the Collection] * link:{handbook}#ports[Installing Applications: Packages and Ports] in the FreeBSD Handbook * Browse the Collection: https://download.freebsd.org/ports/[web] | ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/[FTP].
