Hi Andreas --Multiprocessor support for 32-bit kernels on these SoCs is a bit more complicated as secondary CPU startup is controlled by ARM Trusted Firmware and always start up in 64-bit mode. Primary focus will be on getting SMP working in 64-bit mode.
I don't know of anybody working on a driver for the Pinebook's Wi-Fi chip (RTL8723cs SDIO) at this time.
What does the crash look like? I had two issues: one with GIC, which I recently fixed in HEAD, and another vfs related panic that never quite made sense to me. Hoping either a new U-Boot or 64-bit kernel will make that problem go away, but haven't had a chance to test either yet.
The question of the auto build cluster is better answered by the NetBSD admin staff.

Hi, Thank you! Is there any page that reports about state of NetBSD@PineBook? Is multi processor planned? Is it already maybe done but disabled or something. Also the WIFI adapter does not seem to be supported right now. NetBSD crashes about 2 minutes after booting. Maybe this is USB related as I am using a USB ethernet dongle which works!!! Can I maybe help somehow? When is the auto build cluster available again? Lots of questions. Just asking. :D Many thanx and best regards AndreasAm 07.02.2018 um 01:56 schrieb Jared McNeill <jmcneill%invisible.ca@localhost>: Hi Andreas -- Those images are refreshed every day based on the latest builds on the autobuild cluster (nycdn.netbsd.org). The autobuild machines are currently offline but once they return, new images will start appearing again.

I discovered it while looking for a NetBSD build for Pinebook. Unfortunatly some things are still not working with it like multiprocessor support. Only one CPU is used for now. Of course I am now very curious when the next build will be uploaded. Another thing is that packages seem not to be uploaded. As I have a pretty capable desktop AMD64 PC so I wanted to ask If I maybe can help building packages and upload them or something. I was a happy NetBSD user back in 2004 - 2006 and I would love to use NetBSD again e.g. on my PineBook. Many thanx and best regards Andreas Drewke
