*What is FuguIta? [#fab2fe4c]
#ref(EBUG勉強会/20200530_河豚板の歴史(202410改)/fugudevices.png,around,right,50%)
FuguIta is a [[live system>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Live_USB]] based on [[the OpenBSD operating system>https://www.openbsd.org/]].

The primary goal of this project is to make OpenBSD, a superior operating system, easily accessible to everyone.

In addition, we have implemented a variety of unique features that take advantage of the characteristics of a live system.

-supported platforms
--i386 - the Intel i386 architecture and compatible processors
--amd64 - AMD64-based systems
--arm64 - 64-bit ARM systems (confirmed on Raspberry Pi 3/4)
--macppc - Apple machines based on PowerPC microprocessor (exprimental)

-types of files supplied
--ISO image files for LiveDVD
--raw disk image files for other devices (USB, SD, HDD, SSD...etc)

**FuguIta 7.7 desktop environment demo version [#hd82c060]
#ref(FuguIta/BBS/15/fidemoen.png,wrap,around,left,33%)
I made a demo version of FuguIta with a desktop environment. This demo version demonstrates that FuguIta can be used with a desktop environment as easily as a regular live system.

For more further details, please visit the article [[FuguIta desktop environment demo version>FuguIta/BBS/15#ba2ab6a8]].

** FuguIta-current [#d84f0a73]
FuguIta-current is a version of FuguIta built from the OpenBSD current branch.~
By using FuguIta-current, you can easily try out the latest features of OpenBSD.

- Please download a file in the format FuguIta-7.x-amd64_''CUR''-yymmddn.img.gz from the test directory of the [[download mirrors>FuguIta/Download]].

- Builds and releases are planned to be made roughly once a week, but in practice they are irregular. There may be periods with no updates; thank you for your understanding.

- Since this version is built from the -current branch, it may not always function correctly. Please be aware of this.

- We provide LiveUSB images for the amd64 platform only. If you need a LiveDVD ISO image, please [[generate one from the LiveUSB by using the remaster_dvd command>fge4:livedvd_remaster]].

''Flexible Operation''
-Three boot modes can be selected according to the performance of the hardware.
--Mode 0: FuguIta's standard startup mode

*What does the name "FuguIta" mean? [#g5a9e999]
#ref(FuguIta.png,around,left,33%)
'' '''Fugu'''Ita'' (&ref(fuguita.gif);) stands for "Blowfish Disk" in Japanese.

''Fugu'' means blowfish, and ''Ita'' means something flat such as a plate, a disk or a board etc... ~

Some Japanese might associate "Ita" with cooks or chefs when hearing Ita. For them, so '' '''Fugu'''Ita'' also means "Blowfish Cook" as double meaning.
#clear
:Trivia|"FuguSashi" is an unofficial nickname for the LiveUSB version of FuguIta.~
"Sashi" is a Japanese word meaning "to insert" or "to stick", but it is also an abbreviation for "sashimi".~
Most Japanese people will associate "FuguSashi" with sashimi of fugu.
