rjo: (why NetBSD) : I wanted to learn about *BSD as I already have some experience with Linux (and RTEMS)
<
ysionneau>
rjo: and why NetBSD among the others: it is known to be very portable and very well documented
<
ysionneau>
which so far I find true

so with those SHA-1 you had working USB stack ?
<
ysionneau>
(and a booting M1 with flickernoise I guess)
<
wpwrak>
(cool) yeah, i was pleasantly surprised to find that i had done that :)
<
wpwrak>
and yes, i think that yielded an overall "good" build
<

ysionneau: anything that makes it stand out as an embedded os?

rjo: it supports lots of embedded devices but I honestly don't know much
<
ysionneau>
I don't think it's less valuable than a modern linux for embedded systems
<
ysionneau>
maybe compared to linux 2.4 it takes more resources
<
ysionneau>
but compared to 3.x I guess it's pretty much the same
<
ysionneau>
it supports modules, it has linux binary compatibility layer
<
ysionneau>
you can run Linux binaries on netbsd
<

sb0: I'll send it - but it doesn't support the main lattice tools
<
davidc__>
sb0: it supports the Lattice iceCube tools, for the ex SiliconBlue devices
<
davidc__>
sb0: (I don't have any devboards from the main lattice tools)
<
ysionneau>
rjo: it supports embedded ppc/arm boards (mpc85xx, mini2440, marvell armada)
<
ysionneau>
sorry I don't know what I can tell you :)
<
ysionneau>
wpwrak: will try that when I have a moment (maybe not before 1 or 2 weeks)
<
rjo>
ysionneau: i see. thanks. i had no idea that netbsd was that popular in embedded systems.
<
ysionneau>
it's less popular than linux I think
<
ysionneau>
but I think it's more popular than the other bsd for exotic arch or embedded stuff
<

"NetBSD can run on your toaster"
<
ysionneau>
"of course it runs NetBSD"
<
ysionneau>
are the common quotes you see here and there
<
ysionneau>
there must be some truth underneath :p
