I primarily use FreeBSD at home and would like to use it also on N900. Is it even possible? I know there is ongoing development for FreeBSD on arm and NetBSD must support it (well, it supports just about anything), so I presume it IS possible to install it on minisd?

That's amazing!

I pretty much expect the answer, but just in case: do you know of any similar efforts for the RX-34/RX-44/RX-48 boards?

Yes, but it's made difficult by the framebuffer requiring manual updates. I plan to test it out with my serial jig for RX-44 to move ahead the work.

I wish I knew how to make one of those.... I take it USB console isn't working yet either? Is this available somewhere where curious people can have a look?

Hi,
This is my favorite project.
Can anyone port NetBSD on N900?
