This Page is ment to be a basic howto setup a arm and mips & powerpc dev environment.

This page was last edited 2012-07-09 and is quite stale.
Note: Arm version 4 and arm 5 ( arm 6 is under devel and will be merged in the future)
For those of you wishing to develop for FreeBSD Arm/Mips/PowerPC this is a simple script
to help you setup a basic bootp or dhcp based load system to boot your board.
(NOTE: if you use the dhcp option please make sure that dhcp is turned off on your router.)
Edit the lines in the Edit area to match your system. save and run. sh scriptname.
This Script has only been tested on FreeBSD 9.
- This Script is MEANT to be run as ROOT
I will work to get it working as a user.
