...can poke around and find a changelist... but it would be easier if it was posted with the article.

YAY NetBSD! If only it was as easy to configure pptp/tunneling to a microsoft network as easily as FreeBSD and Linux.

And once it can boot standalone on Mactels... well... Methinks I'll have a new use for my mini and dual booting. ;)

I really wish I could "get into" the BSD stuff but I am just too lazy to learn it I guess.

Seriously, I know this is OT but I feel nostalgic; the NetBSD team recently retired 1.6, the first version I ever tried! :-(

I remember caring for a production 0.9 NetBSD box. ;)

Great system, I used it sometime ago on my Amiga1200 with accelerator card. Nowadays I am using FreeBSD, but I will try it on some spare machine ;)

I agree with you.

I am a newbie in NetBSD and though it has been very hard configure it on my desktop computer, it seems to me very elegant and very well done.

Good work, NetBSD guys!

Does anyone know whether the nforce4 chip is finally fully supported? My ASUS K8N-DL works with Linux and FreeBSD - but NetBSD doesn't work due to unsupported nforce4 chip.

Isn't it supported since NetBSD 3.0?
