jmclnx 1 day ago I need to get around and upgrade an old mini-tower with an AMD-586 w/512MB memory from 9.3 to 11.0, I may wait for 11.1. soupbowl 1 day ago What do you use that low spec machine for? jmclnx 1 day ago It is a backup machine for important files. Plus testing items I develop to see how they run in limited environments. soupbowl 1 day ago Cool, was just curious. 0dayz 1 day ago Just wondering how does that fair over a vm or container that has similar limitations? jmclnx 22 hours ago I do not like using VMs and containers, I do like FreeBSD jails. Plus my main machine is around 12 or 13 years old, so I avoid VMs on it.But I saw somewhere someone is working on a jail like item for NetBSD. throwaway270925 13 hours ago Interesting, whats your backup process, of you mind sharing?

iberator 19 hours ago NetBSD holds record for most supported architectures. Like 50 diffrent, while Linux like maybe 20...Oldest one: VAX780 from 1978(!!!). First 32bit xpu with mmu
