Re: amd64 SBCs on which NetBSD would run ?



Well, it's horses for courses... Some may need or require i386/amd64
architecture. It is certainly the cheapest Intel-based board I have
seen advertised. Anyway, yesterday some of the order options were
still available, today everything is shown as out of stock. I still
intend to monitor UK availability and perhaps try it. As it is running
different Linux versions and able to run Windows 10, chances are that
it will run NetBSD-current out of the box, albeit with lack of support
of some of the devices, i.e. sensors. If it doesn't, then it still
could be used with one of the Linux distributions for something, so it
wouldn't be a total loss.
