Hi List: I have been using FreeBSD current on amd64 for many years. I now have a project that I want to try to run on FreeBSD. I'm trying to boot a FreeBSD image on a BeagleBone Black Rev C without success. FreeBSD-11.0-CURRENT-arm-armv6-BEAGLEBONE-20140903-r270990.img FreeBSD-arm-10.0-BEAGLEBONE.img The above images fail to boot. Here is info from the Beaglebone that is currently running Arch linux booted from the sd card: [root@bbb-allstar ~]# uname -a Linux bbb-allstar 3.8.13-35-ARCH #1 SMP Thu Sep 25 20:15:28 MDT 2014 armv7l GNU/Linux [root@bbb-allstar ~]# dmesg [ 0.000000] Booting Linux on physical CPU 0x0 [ 0.000000] Initializing cgroup subsys cpuset [ 0.000000] Initializing cgroup subsys cpu [ 0.000000] Linux version 3.8.13-35-ARCH (nobody@root-chroot-copy) (gcc version 4.8.2 20131219 (prerelease) (GCC) ) #1 SMP Thu Sep 25 20:15:28 MDT 2014 [ 0.000000] CPU: ARMv7 Processor [413fc082] revision 2 (ARMv7), cr=10c5387d [ 0.000000] CPU: PIPT / VIPT nonaliasing data cache, VIPT aliasing instruction cache [ 0.000000] Machine: Generic AM33XX (Flattened Device Tree), model: TI AM335x BeagleBone ...

I would appreciate any feedback. If there are any testing versions available I would be happy to try and report the results and try to help debug. I look forward to hearing your responses. Thanks in advance. Andy
