Hi,
Maybe you can try to receive a better answer to your question in some of
the following lists:
freebsd-platforms Concerning ports to non-Intel architecture platforms
freebsd-sparc Porting FreeBSD to Sparc systems
freebsd-alpha Porting FreeBSD to the Alpha
freebsd-hackers General technical discussion
freebsd-arch Architecture and design discussions
BTW there is a port for alpha systems already done.
P.S. Try a more descriptive subject, but not a long one.
Have Fun...
Ales
