Re: NetBSD/zaurus port status?



Yeah the code needed to build it all has been commited by Peter Postma.
I have uploaded a release  from -current from a couple of days ago.
ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/misc/ober/release
Under OpenBSD on the zaurus create a CF card with FFS on the primary partition then you can install a NetBSD GENERIC modified to boot wd1a.
There merely point the OpenBSD bootloader to boot the netbsd kernel.
Obviously the kernel would have to be on the root of the OpenBSD partition.

I may have misread your last e-mail about compile GENERIC. Are you cross compiling the build?

If you want to test it, since you already have OpenBSD installed
you can simply compile GENERIC and boot it from the openbsd boot loader.
Currently I just have my OpenBSD partition booting the netbsd kernel
and have base.tgz untarred there as well. Obviously this makes it so openbsd will no longer boot.

But it works.

Is there any NEW news concerning the NetBSD/zaurus ports development? Is there a wiki or website? How about installation documentation?

Thanks!
