NetBSD reached multiuser on Raspberry Pi! Congratulation to Nick Hudson and all involved.
FreeBSD is not there yet, but we’re not slacking either:
.
Well, may be just a little. It’s not even single user yet. SDHC support is work in progress. No USB yet, hence no keyboard and no network. Just console output to framebuffer or serial port.
Awesome! I look forward to playing with a Raspberry Pi one day once I can run the only OS a sane person would run on something like that.
That would be nice to run a small server on it. It can be a useful temporary replacement for DNS for example. Interesting!
Is there anything any of the rest of us with a pi and freebsd knowledge can do to help ?
Not at the moment I guess. We need to stabilize kernel and get multiuser working. Afterwards having specially packaged FreeBSD/Pi would be great.
Hello there!
I’d like to know more about FreeBSD con the raspberry-π. I got it just yesterday.
Kind Regards.
It’s very early stage – kernel is very unstable. But once we’re done I’ll post instruction on how to get FreeBSD running on it.
