On a Raspberry Pi 0W. Not even the 02W. 1 core. 512 MB. Outstanding work, can't wait to check it out and maybe run my own.

In case you wonder if MeLE Quieter 4C can #RunBSD, you can have a look at #NetBSD and #FreeBSD. And old #OpenBSD is also available.

You’re welcome!

PS: if someone has such info for the AOOSTAR WTR Pro (AMD R7 5825U), I may be interested ;-)

rpi-b3+ now, live:
sysupgrade fetch https://cdn.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-11.0/evbarm-aarch64

stay tuned.

I upgraded from 10.1 to 11.0 a #NetBSD virtual machine I have to discover this OS, just for fun and knowledge, this was so easy with sysupgrade ( and pkgin after the kernel upgrade ), and holly shit it fixed an issue with the display I had with lynx 🤩.
That upgrade process works very well and quickly.

Heya!!

At this moment, #OpenBSD is the easiest to get a fully-working system. FreeBSD has decent hardware compatibility, but both wifi and the GUI are a somewhat manual (although fairly trivial) affair, at least until they complete their desktop installer.

#NetBSD also gives you a usable (and actually pretty attractive) X11 system in "base," but the hardware support isn't quite as good, and it lacks #FullDiskEncryption, if that's important to you.

@bpl How about UDF? It has been supported in #NetBSD since 4.0 and in #OpenBSD since 3.8 (different implementation via #FreeBSD)

Edit: OpenBSD man page says its implementation is read-only, so will work for NetBSD to OpenBSD only. As you say, FFS is fine the other way round

Things the OS authors don't want you to know:

* The #FreeBSD logo is Beastie, because it reminds you to dare, hack, and stop praying.
* The #Linux logo is Tux, because even penguins know what it is like to freeze with amdgpu.
* The #Windows logo is a window, because that is where you throw the PC goes after the third BSOD.
* The #OpenBSD logo is Puffy, because it’s the only fish that takes security more seriously than being edible.
* The #NetBSD logo is a flag, because if it boots on your hardware, they claim it as territory.
* The #DragonFlyBSD logo is a dragonfly, because every time you explain HAMMER2, people suddenly find somewhere else to be.
* The #macOS logo is an Apple, because one bite costs 999$, no 1999$, no 4999$. They soldered the RAM to keep the worms out.
* The #ChromeOS logo is #chrome because the operating system is just the browser admitting it won.

My educated guess is that the wakeup code resets the current active KVT to the first one, and this is done in order to effect an explicit KVT switch that gets everything refreshed.

If someone actually looks at the innards of #NetBSD and finds out the real reason, it will be interesting to know how close my guess came. (-:

My homelab has been upgraded to 11.0 🎉

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/

Oh, un live #twitch sauvage ! On continue la compilation de noyau #NetBSD custom, c'est tout de suite sur https://www.twitch.tv/ahp_nils

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.

Happy Friendship Day!
