I have already managed to start FreeBSD on my board (and it runs much much better now; I suppose you're one of the people I want to thank for that).

The only thing I'd like to add is that I also added "makeoptions FDT_DTS_FILE=cubieboard2.dts" to the kernel config in order to have it build. -- wbr, Maxim Filimonov <che@bein.link>
