 The BUILD ID date is not sufficient?
 
 The way I would reconstruct the link from that is:
 
     https://nycdn.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD-daily/
     HEAD/			<-- since version is 10.99.*
     202407011310Z/		<-- the timestamp
     images/
     NetBSD-10.99.11-amd64.iso	<-- translate from x86_64
 
 I don't see the link in /etc/release, but if it is available on an
 installed system somewhere, please let me know.
 
 I run an automated process that first resolves the "latest" link on
 nycdn.n.o and then downloads from the discovered link, so the actual
 link used to download the ISO image depends on the responses provided by
 the web server at the time of download.  I don't record that output, as
 the process is run repeatedly to check for and download new images.
 
 If there is additional information in /etc/release (or some other
 source) that would be helpful, send-pr(1) should also try to include it
 in the report.
 
 If there is additional necessary information that is not yet available
 on an installed system, we should think of a way to have it provided
 in the future.  For example, sysinst(8) could store the install media
 location somewhere, or in the case of ISO images copy some identifying
 information provided on the image itself.  Then send-pr(1) could include
 it in the problem report.
 
 Kind regards,
 + Kimmo
