I found the instructions I wrote a while ago on booting FreeBSD on Parallella and put it back on my site: http://www.skibo.net/zedbsd/#parallella .  It explains how to modify the Zedboard SD card image and boot it on Parallella.  I updated the .dtb file in the tarball because the old one isn’t compatible with 11-release.  It would help if somebody could give this a whirl and give me feedback.

I can’t seem to find the changes to u-boot I made to create the uImage file but I should be able to recreate it.  I think it was just a matter of recompiling u-boot with the CONFIG_API option and changing the default boot commands so it boots ubldr.
