FreeBSD on s3c2410

[Andrew Turner]

I've been working on porting FreeBSD to the s3c24x0 family of ARM CPU's
from Samsung. I've got FreeBSD running to multi-user mode running on an
s3c2410 cpu. The board I've been using is the LN2410SBC from [1].

The required files are in a tarball at [2]. You will need to extract it
over a recent svn checkout and build the LN2410SBC ARN kernel. It
expects to find a filesystem at da0s1.

Hello, Andrew!

Thank you for working on this!  I'll try your patches on my S3C2410
OpenMoko phone.

BTW, do you think it makes sense to commit this work into HEAD already?
It looks like it is in a very good shape now.  What are the outstanding
issues you're working on, if any?

Best regards,

The kernel should work with the Neo 1973 with the neo specific
files from Perforce [1]. I've not managed to get the kernel to boot on
Mine (only the Neo Freerunner which is s3c2442 based). The only way to
get a filesystem on the OpenMoko will be to embed it within the kernel
as a MFS image.

There are no major issues I'm aware of that would hold it back from
HEAD.

I'm mostly working on drivers now and tracking down a bug with USB on
s3c2440 (not on s3c2410 though) stopping it from booting.
