BeagleBone?

Just got a BeagleBone in the mail and so far, it seems like fun:
* Under $100
* Relatively modern Cortex-A8 ARM CPU (TI AM3358)
* Built-in Ethernet, USB console, etc.
So far, I've gotten console access from my FreeBSD
laptop and am starting to tinker with a nanobsd-like
script to build a bootable SD image. (By copying the
MLO and u-boot.img files; nothing FreeBSD-specific yet.)
Next step: Compile the arm/uboot boot loader and
see if I can get that to load and run.
Anyone else tinkering with one of these? Any
hints? ;-)
