I think the TI OMAP/AM335x chip probably has the best cortex a9 freebsd
support right now.  Second would probably be the freescale imx6 family,
mainly because we use it where I work so I get paid to support it.  But
the TI support has been around for a lot longer than imx6 and is more
mature right now.
