>Description:
At least ports for which ~modern hardware exists (i386, amd64,
sparc64, ...) should provide install images for usb sticks, since this
is now by far the easiest way to create install media. But we only
have CD images and floppies. Putting either directly on a USB stick
doesn't quite work.
>How-To-Repeat:
n/a
>Fix:
All you need to do is make a disk image, disklabel and/or fdisk it
like a hard drive, and run installboot on it. Existing image contents
from floppies should be fine.

Really? I thought there were relatively recent sparc64 models :-)
anyway, I stand corrected. If booting from USB is really x86-only the
category should be changed accordingly.

Perhaps so, but we don't support any remotely recent sparc64 models.

"live-image" target builds pre-installed disk images that can be used on
emulators or boot from USB memory sticks to try NetBSD without installation.
Currently amd64, i386, pmax, sparc, sparc64, sun2, sun3, and vax

"install-image" target builds an bootable installation disk image that can
be used as an install CD but burned into USB memory sticks etc.

The point of the PR was that if someone goes to ftp.netbsd.org to look
for netbsd-6 install materials, they can get an image suitable for a
usb stick. When I filed it, they had their choice of cdrom or floppies
only. As far as I can tell, that has not changed.

build.sh is able to build usb images. The buildbots apparently don't
run build.sh with the "install-image" target, but that can be changed.

"build.sh release" also does not create usb images:

it could build a bootable but no-sets included usb image.
"build.sh release" doesn't build an iso with sets, so, it really
shouldn't for usb. but a small image sounds useful...

No, of course it shouldn't, but it should generate one akin to the
cdrom and floppy images it does generate.

we have usb install images for a while now. they're still not

is this PR handled? thanks.

State-Changed-When: Sun, 22 Dec 2019 23:04:44 +0000
State-Changed-Why:
So I just built a full release of -9 for amd64, and sure enough, there are
no usb installer images. Correspondingly, there are none in the 9.0_RC1
directory on nbftp.
In fact, if anything we've regressed since now the only amd64 installer is
a 225MB iso file, even though all an install image really needs is a kernel
plus the 1.3M miniroot that *is* in the installation directory.
It's no wonder people get irritated when asked to try newer releases.

http://nycdn.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD-daily/netbsd-9/latest/images/NetBSD-9.0_RC1-amd64-install.img.gz
seems to be fine? Or for 9.0RC1:
http://cdn.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-9.0_RC1/images/NetBSD-9.0_RC1-amd64-install.img.gz

If you go to the obvious place:
https://cdn.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-9.0_RC1/amd64/installation/
