More than a year in development, GhostBSD 11.1 is based on FreeBSD 11.1 and comes with Xfce and MATE flavors both available for 64-bit (amd64) systems as 32-bit (i386) support is being dropped starting with this release. This is also the first release of the BSD-based OS to ship with its own software package repository. Prominent new features of GhostBSD 11.1 include new UFS full disk swap size, mirroring, and GPT/MBR options on the installer, support for VMware Workstation Guest features, ZFS filesystem configuration, Whisker Menu as default application menu for the Xfce edition, and up-to-date in-house built software.
