Sun Fire V880 support

[Denis Saget]

Thanks, I wil give a try when I will really get the server.

Do you have any pointer to make it available to FreeBSD team for 
development or build?

I have some available storage on my StorEdge 2x3510 FAC-AL (24x300GB) I 
could dedicated a part to this and an ssh access to the server.
