Well, I did run FreeBSD HEAD on my Xbox only a couple of weeks ago and it worked properly. I remember jhb@ made some PCI changes some time ago that caused some breakage, but that got fixed as far as I know.

It was pretty awesome to see FreeBSD run on an Xbox, but nowadays you can even get Android phones having better specs. Say, if the Xbox code makes it hard to implement some kind of cool feature, I really wouldn't mind seeing it go, as long as it's left the way it is in the stable branches. --=20 Ed Schouten <ed@80386.nl> WWW: http://80386.nl/ --kXdP64Ggrk/fb43R Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.17 (FreeBSD) iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJNmOKAAAoJEG5e2P40kaK7VB8P/RHxhT2ITZ/7oyZuMvhvluSt iKTabl5rShg9EbzxCicqjA1xAT2mVGyHIRFOeZjlNARlO/KLDxylJgYrtl7P/Yv9 EGb2VMyA/f4+BUx+zDeox0TEFaxYudmMnOpUQFdV8ELaNBHonXXOyoZZ12rtI6I1 QKfQ9cf9K4yE/hpMTYE3NkAy+c7XjlfsqTo1U3dAqxZWxQTVm0Qa30fqYJRCuS7i yglprebhh827dvymxkfQZr1H79K14VL7FwlkLIMnGPzfy6rUx8FdfCRQtd1Icg0B dHTWsHVGIX2GWyDS8+UB548BkiUh6DpOC+htOkt3pCZIgyWosYb3KQudzW06kByt F7bwO4c39fIRLaxUX7Tt8oox/rKo05Bxb6ZQ/4p3ptdRBzIChDLbZqDiCDdi7gOJ Bw0leoHEWG6gWyNZe8EpKBBG1617doF7y68oaOGsNNxcluif7Xr+w6VrhLJY8hsk PJoORX1TQXi+hvWiJJ8etgMmU2/m8Om8kdhCa1IzEhT54T9WgCo+iTTZ0d3zjOwe ZHN1QSXbTUAK3zdRU4RkHocUt3L+JvBuBtKOilCu1AMjPU2v0/guXWhKYZn5qe9+ 7go9mzQ44gRBiWvpJWn2YTz71RjMVvDkRfTyPKDWui0WP2H7PUGVOi8thlMeVi64 T4qWlaJGDTwd96I1R1Uq =4y5X -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --kXdP64Ggrk/fb43R--
