Hi All,


I've read that FreeBSD support the ARM architecture. 

I use FreeBSD also on i386 plattforms and I very happy with this OS.
Therefore I want try to port FreeBSD-ARM to the TMS470 controller.
This controller is based on an ARM7-Core. So that I believe it should work 
with some adjustments.

My question is: 

Which sourcecode from FreeBSD kernel is required?
The latest i386 code with patches?

Is this wrong, where can I get this code?

What are the rigth steps for porting this controller?

For example:
In the case that I've a running development environment, what the next 
step?

Adjust register and memory assigments in the header?

I hope, everybody else can help me to start this project.


Best regards
Karsten
