#NetBSD #pkgsrc 2026Q2 is now fully underway.
There’s no easy way to move a kernel from NetBSD to an AmigaOS partition, so I had to xz it, split it, copy it over using MS-DOS disk images using a Gotek with FlashFloppy, then join and xz -d on the Amiga side.
#m68k is really taking off! The virt68k port that @thorpej has made is nothing short of amazing. It can now compile practically anything in a VM with 3 gigs of memory and 4 gigs of swap, faster than a real m68060.
This lets us compile large packages that weren’t previously possible or that required a lot of manual tweaking, like llvm-21.1.8, clang-21.1.8, webkit-gtk-2.36.8nb29.
More to come!
