Hi all,

Andrew Turner and me are currently exploring what to do about getting
FreeBSD to run on the Neo1973. Andrew put up some first instructions
here: http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/FreeBSD

Much information about the hardware can be found in that wiki. We are
currently stuck after loading the kernel because there is no
framebuffer driver (yet) and the uart is not working.

I'm using qemu right now because I have no hardware yet.

Any idea what to do next? How to get the uart working? And how to tell
the kernel to use it as console?

Many Thanks
Marius

P.S. Should I have posted this to freebsd-arm?
