The latest ARM platform that NetBSD has been ported to is the NVIDIA Jetson TK1.

This Tegra K1 ARM SoC Cortex-A15 development board is now in a fairly good working state with HDMI audio/video working along with other stability fixes. The NetBSD -current code is working on this board with the customized "JETSONTK1" kernel.


If you're a NetBSD fan and have a Jetson TK1, read more about the current BSD porting efforts for this high-end ARMv7 development board via the NetBSD blog. The Jetson TK1 remains one of my favorite ARM development boards thanks to its powerful SoC but I'm very excited for the Tegra X1 development board that's rumored to be coming later in the year.
