FreeBSD/powerpc64 in principle supports a number of newer IBM CPUs (POWER4-7), but we do not currently run of them due to a lack of hardware drivers. The lack of drivers is in turn due to a lack of development hardware. Does anyone have any IBM machines with a 970, Cell, POWER4, POWER5, POWER6, or POWER7 CPU, ideally with PowerVM, that they would be willing to loan or donate for this port? Remote access to an LPAR and netboot server would also serve the purpose. -Nathan
