T&R is a FreeBSD 15 distribution assembled rather than installed — built from
pkgbase, so making a root filesystem is pkg -r <dir> install. No source tree, no
buildworld, no release tarballs.
These are the first published images.
| asset | what it is | size |
|---|---|---|
tandr-0.2.qcow2 |
server — sshd, cron, serial console | 364 MB, 50 packages |
tandr-0.3.qcow2 |
0.2 plus the verifiable stack (TRVM + trvs) |
626 MB, 56 packages |
0.3 is 0.2 with the runtime and verifier aboard — the extra 262 MB is almost entirely
the python interpreter the stack runs on, which is why it is a build option rather than
the default.
Verified
Both images were booted from these exact files before publishing:
tandr-0.2— FreeBSD 15.1-RELEASE-p2, 50 packages, sshd up, no stack (correct)tandr-0.3— 56 packages,trvs doctor→status ready, and it derives
sem-8ae91fe9cbc5fd08…for its demo world — the same identity the same command
prints on an Arch Linux workstation
Not verified
Neither image has ever been booted on real hardware. Every T&R boot on record is a
QEMU/KVM guest. Writing one to a USB stick or an internal disk should work — it is a
GPT image with a UEFI ESP — but nobody has done it, so it is untested rather than
supported.
Why it is small
FreeBSD's own cloud image is 2.51 GB with 504 packages and writes ~3 GB to its overlay
on first boot. A T&R server instance writes 51 MB, because the image is already
patched and does not re-download its own base every time it starts. Deliberately absent:
FreeBSD-tests (~200 MB), every -dbg package, every lib32 package.

Desktop
The desktop flavour (X.org, icewm, the RRABBIT road shell) is ~5.2 GB and does not fit
GitHub's 2 GB per-file limit. Build it yourself:
