 # Installation  # Installation
  - You may use the rpi.img file created by an arm build.   - You may use the rpi.img file created by an evbarm build - evbarm-earmv6hf is recommended.
    - An example can be found in the '/evbarm/binary/gzimg/' directory under releng.netbsd.org     - The Raspberry Pi port will be part of the NetBSD 7 stable release,
    - 'obj/releasedir/evbarm/binary/gzimg/' if you run (for example) './build.sh -m evbarm -u release'       but you may want to use the HEAD branch for the latest development code.
      - <i>gunzip and dd</i> this img to your sd card.     - The automatic nightly builds can be found in the 'evbarm-earmv6hf/binary/gzimg/' directory under on [nyftp.netbsd.org](http://nyftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD-daily/).
        - The HEAD/current build will be under HEAD/YYYYMMDDHHMMZ/evbarm-earmv6hf/binary/gzimg/
        - The stable build will be under netbsd-7/YYYYMMDDHHMMZ/evbarm-earmv6hf/binary/gzimg/
        - For example, http://nyftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD-daily/netbsd-7/201412161700Z/evbarm-earmv6hf/binary/gzimg/
