Hello all,
The wiki does not list support for the SoC that interests me. Now, I know I could just go out and buy something with one of the SoCs that IS supported, but I've got this great 10in, 10yo tablet, that, despite its age, has a killer battery (after I rooted and killed all the unnecessary processes). I could even keep it as is, but I recently got the itch to install BSD on it. Why? Eh, I dunno =). Anyhow, I was wondering if anyone could suggest a good place to start, in my quest to port FreeBSD to a new SoC.
Thanks in advance!
Info only, not an ad: (I'm not even sure it's possible to find these in decent condition anymore)
Tablet: Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 Edition
SoC: Exynos 5420
Update:
I actually just found this commit in SVN: 266943

Looks like the support is already there. That doesn't negate the original question though - I have an entire stack of mobile devices, and I'd still be interested to learn how to add support for other SoC's, plus... the commit is over 7 years old, and some updates might be in order.
