[Discuss] Assistance with FreeBSD installation



Life gets interesting at times.  I had been attending BLU meetings for a
few years, but ended up stopping a while back.  I had thought once
measures effective for COVID-19 were in-place meetings would return to
being in-person, yet BLU meetings are still online-only.

Due to someone ending rather faster than expected, I've ended up having
a smallish FreeBSD installation dumped on me.  This is less than 10
computers and no VMs.

Issue is this installation is a bit outside of anything I've done with
FreeBSD so far.  In particular while I have gotten a minimall install of
FreeBSD done and updated using `freebsd-update` and `pkg`, this
installation has been built/updated via source.

Any hints since I'm rather concerned about this situation?
