I installed it on my Slackware 15.0 system and it went great, But one warning, you may need to add this exact line to the very first like of some .el files. Then maybe "compile" the .el files to .elc
;; -- lexical-binding: nil --
I had to add it to ~/.emacs, ~/.emacs.d/elpa/elpher-3.7.0/elpher.el and file ps-ccrypt.el to avoid an error message that kept popping up.
Nice Article, but to me, NetBSD is not '90s' like. It and the other BSDs went down a different path than Linux, or actually stayed on the same path. Instead of going down a Windows Path, they stayed on a UNIX path.
Maybe post the question here:

Someone there may want it for parts.
Nice article, and yes, I agree with cgd(8) and the installer :)
I was able to setup cgd(8) but that was not easy. I had tp print out that chapter and scribble some notes for install on a 2nd device. But as another article said, you get a great sense of accomplishment once you get NetBSD up and running !
You will find both are very similar to each other, especially for common tasks. See: https://www.openbsd.org/faq/
I have OpenBSD on a R51e and had it on a T61. No issues except sleep and resume. R51e fails, T61 works except on resume you loose your USB ports.
Now NetBSD works great on the T61, no issues. The R51e I kept with OpenBSD.
Also note this quote from OpenBSD: "... only easy and critical security fixes are backported to i386"
Nice, but how did I miss this undeadly article!
