FreeSBIE is a LiveCD based on the FreeBSD Operating system, or even easier, a FreeBSD-based operating system that works directly from a CD, without touching your hard drive. We also develop a simple to use and easily extendable toolkit used for the creation of the CD. This toolkit can also be used to make embedded images a-la miniBSD or nanoBSD.

Is there a way to install FreeSBIE on my HD?
As of today, no, you cannot install FreeSBIE 2.0 on your hard disk. FreeSBIE is a LiveCD totally based on FreeBSD, so if you want a FreeSBIE on your hard disk, you can install FreeBSD and then copy the FreeSBIE configuration files.
