Article title: Unix-like operating system NetBSDv5.0Final released. Linux is a technology channel of the IT lab in China. Includes basic categories such as desktop applications, Linux system management, kernel research, embedded systems, and open source.

NetBSD is a free, secure and highly customizable Unix-like operating system suitable for multiple platforms, from 64-bit AMD Athlon servers and desktop systems to handheld devices and embedded devices. It has simple design, code specifications, and many advanced features, so it is well received in the industry and academia. Users can get support through the complete source code. Many programs can be easily obtained through the NetBSD Packages Collection.

NetBSD, like his sister FreeBSD, is based on 4.3BSD via the Networking/2 and ipvbsd at the University of California. The project began as a result of frustration within the specified BSD developer community with the pace and direction of the operating system's development. chris Demetriou, Theo de Raadt, Adam Glass, and Charles Hannum, four founders of NetBSD, think that an open development model will help NetBSD program. they aim to develop a cross-platform, high-quality, BSD-based operating system.

Due to the importance of the network for common development, Theo de Raadt recommends that the project name be "NetBSD" and be recognized by the other three initiators. the version library of the NetBSD original code was established in March 21, 1993, and the first version was released in April 1993, NetBSD 0. 8. in September of the same year, NetBSD released version 0.9, which included many amendments and enhancements to its functions. this version is still limited to running on PC. In October 1994, NetBSD released version 1.0, a multi-platform version provided by NetBSD.
