I figured I would look at upgrading my 1.0 system to current, after
getting a new hard drive, and went about grabbing files to do so this
weekend. But, I couldn't find a binary snapshot anywhere. I looked
on ftp.iastate.edu and ftp.NetBSD.org. Has anyone made a binary
snapshot recently? Are there any plans to release an "official" one
soon? (I am personally interested in the i386 port.)
I really don't think it's worth my time to try and upgrade through a
source-only process (which I know can be quite messy). I'd prefer to
just do the "binary install, build kernel, build sources, you're done"
approach.
Thanks!
