The PPC FreeBSD development isn't even at the point where it's booting into
multiuser mode.  You can find some hints about it at
http://www.jeamland.net/~benno/  However, there doesn't seem to be any
formal page for it yet.  This mailing list is the most reliable source of
information about FreeBSD/ppc at the moment, so I would recommend just
watching here.

FYI, the developers seem to be concerntrating mostly on the Apple hardware,
since it's the most common and readily available PowerPC platform at the
moment, although it looks like they intend to support less prolific ones as
well.
