Pre-compiled packages:

 If you update pkgsrc by yourself,comment out /etc/pkg_install.conf and check
 /etc/mk.conf.

Sharp NetWalker special kernel: (Thanx h_kenken@)
  /boot/netbsd-NETWALKER.bin.gz is a kernel for Sharp NetWalker.

  1. Make backup image on NetWalker ubuntu.
  2. cp /boot/netbsd-netwalker.bin.gz [BackupImage]/boot/zImage
  3. Set [BackupImage] MicroSD to NetWalker MicroSD port
  4. Set RPI image to USB port via SD to USB dongle.
  5. With pushing [L Mouse][R Mouse],push Power button in 5 seconds.
  6. Pray for success in 5 seconds.
  7. Typical NetBSD Boot message appears on your console.
  8. Fail on single user mode,"mount /"
  9. vi /etc/fstab and type :1,$s/ld0/sd0/g w q

musica - DLNA/UPnP music server: (Thanx @cvsync)
 MAEKAWA Masahide make a DLNA/UPnP music server called "musica".
 
  1. Check http://www.m-systems.co.jp/musica/index_en.html .
  2. Download musica-0.1.17-netbsd6-evbarm-earmhf.tar.gz for evaluation.
  3. Extract tar file and read documents.
  4. ./musica -d [AAC,MP3,WMA,FLAC,DSDIFF,DSF,AIFF,WAV,Apple Lossless dir]

  7. If you feel slow,Try {NetBSD/amd64 i386,OSX,Ubuntu} Version or improve 
NetBSD.

Todo:
