Even with minimal things enabled, NetBSD’s rc script takes a while to finish on a 120MHz ARM9, so I wrote my own rc script that runs in a couple seconds. But it looks like the 30 second delay on shutdown is hardcoded into /sbin/init. So maybe I’ll write my own init too.
There are some things about the kernel that I think could be slightly improved. Maybe I’ll write my own ker
