NetBSD 11.0-RC1 Available For Testing With Enhanced Linux Emulation
The first release candidate of the big NetBSD 11.0 release is now available for testing.
NetBSD 11.0 had been aiming to release last October with their release candidate hoped for in September, but that didn't ultimately pan out. At least this weekend the NetBSD 11.0-RC1 binaries are now complete and the testing can proceed with NetBSD 11.0 stable hopefully being not too far away.
NetBSD 11.0 is headlined by better RISC-V support and improved Linux binary emulation. There are also various new drivers for hardware sensors and fan controls, PVH boot support is now supported on x86 non-Xen platforms like QEMU and Firecracker, and a wealth of package updates. There is GCC 12.5, GDB 15.1, OpenSSH 10.0, and many other upgrades.
NetBSD 11.0-rc1 release images for the many supported different CPU architectures can be found via ftp.netbsd.org.
