Re: Is there a port manual for port freebsd to arm/imx6 board?

the wiki https://wiki.freebsd.org/arm tells us:

- Supported SBC: NXP i.MX6

and provides a link to the "Embedded Handbook":
https://wiki.freebsd.org/EmbeddedHandbook

where you will find out how to compile the base system.

UBoot port has some slave ports, like the one to boot on imx6:
https://wiki.freebsd.org/arm/U-Boot-ports

see sysutils/u-boot-master
