Hi, I am purchasing some Raspberry Pi boards and I'd like to get NetBSD on them. I'd like to help the porting effort if I can. Does TNF or the port-ARM maintainers need hardware to begin? If so, please let me know as I may be able to assist. -d

I don't know if more hardware would help (someone else should speak up); testing certainly will. And if you were in a position to convince hardware manufacturers to give access to components' manuals, your help would be very valuable indeed. :) regards, spz -- -- spz <at> serpens.de (S.P.Zeidler)

I've been asked by a few people if I would write a video driver - the problem right now is that no matter where you look they're out of stock, and have been for a while. I'm sure there are a few people with interest but no hardware. > And if you were in a position to convince hardware manufacturers to give > access to components' manuals, your help would be very valuable indeed. :) Especially the graphics part - I'd like to do at least basic 2D stuff in order to get a decent console and X. have fun Michael(Continue reading)

Hello, I need to buy an arm board to build a proof-of-concept appliance running NetBSD/evbarm. I need a minimum of two ethernet ports and a smallish enclosure, so I think that eliminates all but the Dreamplug (please correct me if I'm wrong, I'm willing to use other hardware). Before I buy one, I'd like to know how much work it will take to run NetBSD on it. Thanks in advance, Jason M.
Hi,
I thought I'd share the fact that I'm making good progress with Raspberry PI.

It might be time to replace my ageing TS7200s. I now have an idea floating around to remove the video, audio and microUSB connectors and then add a power connector and a mezzanine card with an RTC and RS-232. Cheers, Lloyd
