The beaglebsd script seems to be pretty reliable at building BeagleBone
images now.   I've still not gotten the BeagleBone through a full
buildworld/installworld cycle yet but getting closer.

I have been able to build a number of ports and am
using things like git and subversion directly on the
BeagleBone.  It's getting close.

I've started working in earnest on RaspberryPi image-building
support.

I want to play with having the RPi boot bits load the
FreeBSD kernel directly using LINUX_BOOT_LOADER
support.  That would be a faster boot
approach and might be more appropriate on a system
that doesn't ordinarily have a serial console.
