This is from the view of a student of FreeBSD, not an expert (i.e., I stumble a lot) -- hopefully somebody finds this perspective helpful! A prior knowledge of OS fundamentals is required but not recommended.

Sorry for the poor audio quality. I was trying out a new headset and didn't realize the mic had a lot of noise behind it, and the noise filtering made the speech unclear.

Errata (also mentioned at start of next video):
0:21:05 - When creating the VM in virt-manager, even though I did not set the number of allocated CPUs to 8, so the VM was only using a single core even though the CPU topology has 8 logical CPUs. (As you can see in htop, only one core was showing.)
2:33:33 - The info pages were removed from the base install (beginning in FreeBSD 11), and now can be installed with the texinfo package (the print/texinfo port).
