Hi, I've just committed changes to move macppc specific bootable installcd stuff from src/distrib/cdrom to sys/arch/macppc/stand dirs: https://mail-index.netbsd.org/source-changes/2024/09/15/msg153340.html https://mail-index.netbsd.org/source-changes/2024/09/15/msg153341.html https://mail-index.netbsd.org/tech-toolchain/2024/09/15/msg004534.html Now no file in src/distrib/cdrom is necessary on "build.sh iso-image" processes, so I think it's time to G/C all historical src/distrib/cdrom stuff. The only functionality of src/distrib/cdrom not supported by build.sh is "fetching release binaries and use them on creating ISO": https://nxr.netbsd.org/xref/src/distrib/cdrom/README?r=1.4 However I'm not sure it's still tested on recent releases and it also requires optional /usr/pkg/bin/rsync binary, so I think there is less worth to maintain such stuff. (even github actions can handle "build.sh release iso-image" as CI tests) If there is no objection, I'll remove all src/distrib/cdrom stuff at least before netbsd-11 cut. Thanks, --- Izumi Tsutsui
