Hi,

> Can anybody point me to the right path?? 

  It's going to take a lot of work

    - CPU support for the embedded 405 ppc core. This isn't in FreeBSD yet.
    - drivers for the on-chip peripherals

> I want to know how the bootloader should also be.

  Looks like u-boot supports the ml403, and with u-boot now supporting 
FreeBSD, that should be the place to start.

later,

Peter.
