Recently I saw this thread [1] where Gary Palmer is asking whether FreeBSD will work on it. It turns out uboot needs to be updated [2]. So it won't run if I build FreeBSD on my own [3]? I would like to ask before I spend hours worth nothing. :) 1: https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-arm/2015-February/010132.html 2: https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-arm/2015-February/010135.html 3: http://kernelnomicon.org/?p=275 I am quite curious about it since I just started using FreeBSD recently and would like to continue using it on my future machines instead of any Linux-Distro. Thank you and best, -- Niklaas
