They provide linux support, like mini 2440 and it is said that also
android is supported by 6410 now!

"They"?
You mean "You", at least your sender address makes it obvious.

I don't think many people on this list have problems with vendors
presenting their products, but it is better to play with open cards.
Of course it would also be better to know something about FreeBSD
support, since this is what this list is about - Linux is nice, but
this is a FreeBSD list and FreeBSD-friendliness is what people prefer
to read here.

You are right and I only want to bring some information here to you
all, if someone has interest of porting FreeBSD to the ARM9 platforms,
that will be great.
I do find someone talked about working on FreeBSP on similar ARM
platforms, that is the reason I posted here.
Thanks for your kind notice.

It'd be great if this company could provide some sample boards
to the FreeBSD Foundation so developers can work on bringing
them up with FreeBSD.

In any case thank for information on this boards, but I think
this is unappropriate list for this kind of information.  Maybe
freebsd-misc list or FreeBSD forums will fit better.

Best regards,

I have a mini2440 sitting on my desk that I have had running FreeBSD to
single-user mode. I'm unable to boot FreeBSD with USB support on it
though so I haven't managed multi-user mode.

As far as I know there is nobody working on S3C6410 support. I don't
know how similar the peripherals on the chip are to the S3C24x0 chips
to know how difficult it would be to port FreeBSD to it.

Glad to hear that you boot up FreeBSD on the board, however making
each driver work does take effort, like usb, lcd, speaker etc.
maybe you can merge some some code from the package of the board.
6410 is different, it is ARM11, 2440 is ARM9, so expect difference.
