You can find a very experimental port for an AlphaCore 2 linux base 
port at
http://andreas.syndrom23.de/svn/projects/ports/trunk/emulators/linux-base-ac2/
This is based on the existing fc3 port.

This port should install a working linux base, but I did not find a
linux-needing port to fully test it. I'd be delighted to know if it
works for you.

Cross posted to freebsd-emulation@, basically to solicit comments if any
such port would be helpful as long as alpha "support" exists in FreeBSD
5.x/6.x.
