As another test you could "boot -a" the netbsd10 kernel and then point it to a netbsd-10 installed USB or PCMCIA drive as a root filesystem. While you probably already have everything after the boot pretty much covered, it's always nice to see it come up and run completely from a netbsd-10

I was using fdisk to setup a USB key on NetBSD-10 and noticed its still defaulting to 63 sector offset, including when "1m" is entered: I can understand wanting to align to real cylinders on ancient fixed track-per cylinder disks, but it makes no sense on even modern spinning rust, let alone

Enabling xdm in sysinst breaks console login?

Just installed NetBSD 8.99.42/i386 on a ThinkPad T41 and enabled xdm in the sysinst menu. After xdm started I hit Ctrl+Alt+F1 to switch vty but was unable to login - at first no characters were shown. Evenutally I was able to type root and have it shown, but it just moved the display down and did

sysinst garbled screen on i386 - curses issue?

Just pulled the latest install image for 8.99.42 from nycdn, and tested on a ThinkPad T41 (Unrelated - I noticed was an acpi battery update appearing over the middle of the screen, which was a little jarring, but not the end of the world) There seems to be something off with the cursor

Suspend/resume on a Thinkpad T420s (success!)

Just tried the latest amd64 8.99.42 on top of a NetBSD-8 install on a Thinkpad T420s and it survived multiple suspend/resume cycles, both from the console and X11. (When suspended from X11 it resumed to a blank screen with a cursor and needed a Ctrl+Alt+F1 / Ctrl+Alt+F5 to reset the display).

Java & NetBSD (JNA or Linux emulation)

I have a java project which needs to run some dl4j (Deep Learning for Java) code. Unfortunately dl4j requires some native libraries The two obvious options would be to build the native libraries for NetBSD (which in turn needs JNA) or to run under the oracle-8 JDK using Linux emulation. Trying

copied from jmcneill's msk(4) I tried building from HEAD with just that one commit reverted, and my T420s suspends and resumes again! iwn0 is still non responsive after resume and wm0 will not pick up an IP via dhcpcd, but the disk responds :-p David On Sat, 24 Nov 2018 at 22:47, David Brownlee
