BSD from scratch
From source to OS with ease on NetBSD
NetBSD has had support for cross compilation for some time now. We covers the features and changes in NetBSD enabling a new comer to set out from obtaining a copy of the NetBSD source code and pkgsrc onto building an OS and firmware for an ARM board from scratch on an operating system of their choice. This works was leveraged as the basis for a series of workshops aimed at introducing the NetBSD operating systems to hardware enthusiasts, with the intention to demonstrate how you can make someone who is not necessarily interested in software, easier.
