Greets- I stared at a number of pages looking for some ref to cpu
compatability for FreeBSD. I assume that it will work on all variants of
the x86 flavor cpu chip. If there are compatability issues w/some of those
currently avail (such as Intel Celeron, AMD Duron, Cyrix, etc.) it would be
nice to have in the FAQ. If nothing else some mention that "there are
currently as of such-&-such date no such issues" would provide psychological
re-assurance for the paranoid newby (holds up hand - "Yo!"). Some brief
mention of other cpu supportage such as Motorola 68K found in Amiga & other
older boxes like Sun, Oleveti, ATT B2, etc.; or DEC Alpha based boxes; or
Motorola PPC based boxes would possibly also be helpful.
