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.

FreeBSD/ARM Hardware Notes

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.

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.

What musicians say about FreeBSD/ARM

+ +

With FreeBSD/ARM, you can enjoy the silence from running your + (embedded) computer. There's even a song of that name, "Enjoy + The Silence", by Depeche Mode:

All I ever wanted
+All I ever needed
+Is here in my ARMs
+Words are very unnecessary
+They can only do harm
