Hello, I am considering installing FreeBSD on my Raspberry Pi for a personal server. I read the documentation on the wiki and a few discussions on the forum but I still have a few doubts.
The wiki says:
I found links to a few unofficial package repositories compatible with the Raspberry Pi. Is there any official (or a recommended) repository? I assume that compilation on the device would be quite slow, so I'd prefer to avoid it.
Does FreeBSD have any special command to update Raspberry PI firmware? Linux package managers have it and I am wondering what the FreeBSD equivalent is.
The wiki says:
Does it mean that by default the access via the serial adapter is not enabled and it needs to be configured?As of January 2013, FreeBSD-CURRENT fully supports either a video console (you'll need a USB keyboard and display connected) or it can be configured to use a serial console (you'll need a serial adapter cable such as the one sold by Adafruit.com).
