|
<p>FreeBSD/ARM is a port of FreeBSD which aims to run
|
|
on the ARM architecture and hardware.
|
|
The project's goal is to provide support for the
|
|
architecture and hardware surrounding it.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>FreeBSD/ARM Hardware Notes</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>Currently FreeBSD should work on the i80321 based Intel
|
|
devboards, which includes the IQ31244 and IQ80321 boards.
|
|
Support is still minimal, covering only the CPU, PCI-X bus,
|
|
em(4) Ethernet adapters, the UART and timer devices.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Minimal support for the StrongARM 1100 CPU is provided, but
|
|
only within the limits of what Simics emulate: CPU, UART and
|
|
clock. It is theoretically possible to boot on the Assabet board,
|
|
the one Simics emulates; no attempts, successful or unsuccessful,
|
|
have been reported.
|
|
|
|
<h3>What Needs To Be Done</h3>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>SATA support needs to be added.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Other devices, such as watchdog, i2c and bus should be merged
|
|
from NetBSD.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
