This morning I got noticed that the US mirror server is down. NextArray's website is also down, so there is not much we can do.
In the meantime, you can change your package repository for France, Canada, or South Africa.
In /etc/pkg/GhostBSD.conf, change the URL of this line with the mirror URL you want:
url: "http://pkg.fr.ghostbsd.org/stable/${ABI}/latest",
Here is the list of mirrors:
Canada
http://pkg.ghostbsd.org/stable/${ABI}/latest
France
http://pkg.fr.ghostbsd.org/stable/${ABI}/latest
South Africa
http://pkg.za.ghostbsd.org/stable/${ABI}/latest
I will make an announcement when everything is back in order.
Sorry for the inconvenient
I am happy to announce the availability of the new ISO 21.04.27. First, I would like to thank Joe Maloney, Vic Thacker, and Neville Goddard for the time and effort they put into improving and testing GhostBSD to make it better than before. Also, I have special thanks to Kyle Evans and Allan Jude for the help on Twitter about devmatch and our BE problems.
When we started to port all the GhostBSD code from 12.2-STABLE to 13.0-STABLE, several problems arose with OpenRC, devd, and drivers not loaded at boot. We discovered that OpenRC devd and devmatch services implementations were not working properly. We had to create rc.devmatch to replace the OpenRC service implementation of devmatch.conf for devd. With devmatch now starting properly, all drivers get loaded at boot and when a new device is inserted. In addition, we were able to remove all changes we made in the GENERIC kernel, making the default kernel a bit smaller. I fixed ntpd and wireguard services. Autoconfiguration for network cards has been removed from NetworkMgr and added to the script started by devd.
To upgrade to 21.04.27, I created a post on the forum: Upgrading to newer versions of GhostBSD based on 13-STABLE.
