There aren't many of them in the #AWS environment; some are broken and some are old, so I decided to use the information below:

https://www.netmeister.org/blog/creating-netbsd-ec2-amis.html
https://www.netmeister.org/blog/netbsd-amd64-ami.html

After minor tweaks, I compiled and publicly released the following #AMI.
These aren't official images, but I'd appreciate feedback from anyone using #AWS on whether everything is OK or if something is wrong.
You might be using #AWS and didn't know the latest images were available. Now you know :-)

For me personally, #NetBSD works very well as a small instance with #AWS #Graviton2 Processor which is quite cheap after good cost optimization in #AWS.

A screenshot of a NetBSD 11.0 system.

Reading about the changes in #NetBSD 11.0, in particular npf and kernel changes to improve SMP, really very interesting.

I have to say the idea of using BPF for firewall rules appeals to my inner tcpdump maniac.

Successfully pkgbasified my laptop and one host in the homelab :)

(Plus one host in the homelab was installed that way to start with.)

And got my Pi2 upgraded to NetBSD 11 \o/

I think I'm a NetBSD person now.

Linux has seriously overshot on complexity, that happened a while ago. Computers in general have way overshot on complexity, but if you want to still use them you need an OS that can work the machinery. NetBSD hits a sweet spot. This is mostly subjective, and my knowledge of OSs is not comprehensive, so do not put a lot of weight on these statements.

Wait... HP9000 used to be m68k?!? 🤯

P.S., there's videos of #NetBSD booting on fairly old m68k macs, but I dont know how old the videos themselves are, or if they got X11 running.

@siegi Finally, I went for a testing step on my intel N100. It looks #netbsd 11 works fine. In fact I am going beyond that and installing a desktop. Other than I have to use a usb-wifi, the system works quiet good with xfce.

Mission accomplished, it seems!
I must have messed something up during `sysupgrade` and `etcupdate` because my user was no longer in the `wheel` group, but luckily it wasn't a big deal (thanks usermod)

Then I updated pkgsrc with `cvs update -dP` and edited `/usr/pkg/etc/pkgin/repositories.conf` to change the release number.

I hope that’s correct!
The update of all packages was successful, so I’m assuming it is.

Is it normal that `pkgin upgrade` re-download and reinstall all packages, even those that are already the same version?

I'd say the overall experience has been very positive.

P.S. `i3status` gives me an error if I use UTF-8 "icons" (it worked with 10.1), but it's not really a big deal.

" When I was in graduate school, I was doing a lot of molecular dynamics simulations, but I did not have access to a lot of high-performance hardware. The math department had a 4-node Cray that was impossible to reserve time on, and the CS department had a 16-node Dell cluster that ran SGE and was decently reliable. When those resources ended up not being enough for my crazy array of tasks, I got resourceful and started gathering every single outdated CPU anyone anywhere on campus was getting rid of or had no use for, and built my own cluster in our lab. Before finishing my Ph.D. I had 12 SGI Indys, 8 PowerMac G3 6300s, 10 PowerMac G3 7600s, and 20+ Dell P3 towers in my "cluster".

NetBSD is the only thing that made that possible. " -- https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49140753

🚩 NetBSD 11.0 a fost lansat: Suport nativ pentru RISC-V și compatibilitate îmbunătățită cu Linux!

Noul update major al istoricului sistem de operare din familia BSD, NetBSD 11.0, este acum disponibil oficial, aducând îmbunătățiri remarcabile pe partea de suport hardware, performanță și securitate.

✨ Ce aduce nou NetBSD 11.0:

🏗️ Arhitectură RISC-V extinsă:
• Suport complet și îmbunătățit pentru hardware-ul bazat pe arhitectura deschisă RISC-V (atât pe 64 de biți, cât și pe 32 de biți), extinzând portabilitatea legendară a sistemului.

🐧 Compatibilitate mai bună cu pachetele Linux:
• Stratul de compatibilitate COMPAT_LINUX a primit actualizări majore, permițând rularea mai multor aplicații și utilitare native de Linux pe un kernel NetBSD.

⚡ Drivere și stivă grafică modernizate:
• Drivere grafice actualizate pentru procesoarele grafice moderne Intel, AMD și NVIDIA, oferind suport mai bun pentru accelerarea 3D și monitoare de înaltă rezoluție.

🔒 Măsuri avansate de securitate:
• Îmbunătățiri la nivelul kernelului pentru prevenirea exploatării vulnerabilităților de memorie (ASLR extins, măsuri mai severe de izolare a proceselor).

🛠️ Sistem de fișiere și rețea:
• Optimizări de performanță pentru FFS (Fast File System) și ZFS, alături de îmbunătățiri ale stack-ului de rețea IPv4/IPv6.

Conform celebrului lor motto "Of course it runs NetBSD", noua versiune demonstrează încă o dată flexibilitatea incredibilă a acestui sistem de operare! 🚀

Announcing #NetBSD 11.0 (July 30, 2026)

https://www.netbsd.org/releases/formal-11/NetBSD-11.0.html

🚩 NetBSD 11.0 Brings RISC-V Support, Linux Compatibility Improvements https://linuxiac.com/netbsd-11-0-brings-risc-v-support-linux-compatibility-improvements/

#netbsd #bsd #opensource

I am still totally floored by the fact that this 2 cpu, 2GB netbook feels perfectly usable under #NetBSD 11.

Despite my love for #Slackware I will be the first to acknowledge that Linux (in general) is now so completely bloated that good little machines are not usable with it anymore.

Kudos to everyone who made this a great release! You guys made my day!

(Also: isn't it weird that NetSurf is able to render netbsd.org and openbsd.org flawlessly?) 😉

And we are live from #NetBSD 11 Ladies and Gentlemen!

A little 'pkgin -V -4 upgrade' and everything is working perfectly.

I have somewhat improved my little tmux script, and I can now take the dog out for her late evening walk before retiring to bed... Good night everyone!

#NetBSD is now trending across Mastodon

Updating #NetBSD 11.0_RC7 to 11.0...

Really smooth so far.

NetBSD 11.0 released

NetBSD, the operating system specifically designed to run on anything from a supercomputer to a toothpick, just released version 11.0. There's a ton of changes and improvements here, such as a brand new port to RISC-V, which supports a number of the more popular RISC-V SoCs (sadly, not the one I have just yet). NetBSD 11.0 also adds initial support for the Qualcomm Snapdragon X Elite platform, a

NetBSD 專案正式發佈 NetBSD 11.0 版本。面對因 AI 工具興起而激增的安全漏洞威脅，開發團隊選擇保持資訊透明並如期發佈，而非因等待第三方修補程式而無限期延期。此版本優化了自動化建置與映像檔發佈流程，但受限於跨架構檔案網路傳輸與安全官手動簽署雜湊值等必要步驟。團隊預計在兩個月內推出 11.1 版本，以完整修復現存的已知安全漏洞。

Is there a sysupgrade(8) for #NetBSD? I thought one was supposed to download the memstick image, boot sysinst and choose "upgrade"?

Spent the morning installing #NetBSD 11.0 over all the release candidates. In little while I'll upgrade the big one running 10.1 and ZFS. Congrats to all involved for a very nice release!
