Thanks so much Robert for your explanation, I appreciatte it very much
and I understand it better now. I am going to try NetBSD-11 and see
what happens.

The real question is what are you trying to do.

Hi Greg,

I was doing anything serious, I was bored and only tried to compile full NetBSD from Linux, just as an exercise following the NetBSD Guide (it sounds cool to compile a full OS from another OS). I choose NetBSD-current just for choosing something and see what happened.


If you want a system to do something useful with, including develop/test
pkgsrc, then netbsd-11 is appropriate. It's pretty up to date, and very
stable.

I understand...

If you want the very latest, and you are ok with running into build
issue, waiting, and retrying, and perhaps trouble with the system when
booted, and are ok with using /rescue and/or booting off saved bootable
media, then you can of course run current if you want.

No, I do not have the expertise to fight with the OS at such level ;-)

Regards.
Ramiro.
