An update on what I've found so far. There doesn't appear to be anything I can find on an Altera port of FreeBSD for their SoC devices. They seem to be focussing on Linux for now; http://rocketboards.org. On the other hand there is a FreeBSD port for Xilinx Zynq - specifically the ZedBoard; see http://www.zedboard.org and https://wiki.freebsd.org/FreeBSD/arm/Zedboard (FYI; the Adapteva Paralla board is also based on the ZedBoard). Both vendors are using the same ARM architecture so I figure if I can get a serial port and uboot running on the Altera SoC bringing up a basic FreeBSD kernel should be doable. The fun will be porting drivers. I've been looking at the (rather slick) cross compiler tools for FreeBSD and (I think) I have compiled a RaspberryPi kernel and userland which I will now start to test. -Andy _______________________________________________ MirageOS-devel mailing list MirageOS-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xenproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mirageos-devel
