{{Installation navbox}} {{note | The officially recommended way of installing ConTeXt on all platforms is using [[ConTeXt Standalone|ConTeXt Suite]]}}
FreeBSD still relies on teTeX in the ports collection. Alternately, TeXlive is now available as a branch extension, see [http://code.google.com/p/freebsd-texlive/wiki/Installing] and [http://romain.blogreen.org/blog/2011/08/texlive-2011-on-freebsd/], until migration to the main ports branch is completed.
[[TeX Live]] as a standalone installation will run "out of the box" on all recent versions of freeBSD (7, 8, 9)and extended support is available for earlier versions; The [[ConTeXt Standalone]] installation is compiled for the latest stable release (currently 8.2).
=== OpenBSD ===
The ConTeXt Standalone distribution does not currently support OpenBSD.

Use [[ConTeXt Standalone|ConTeXt Suite]], if you want up to date ConTeXt.
