Hello.

you could try to inst= all linux natively on it and then virtualize freebsd with qemu + kvm on / f= or=C2=A0 arm64. This is what I would like to do if I boug= ht one of those.

I assume others have run it since there is a u-boot for it, but maybe
recent versions are different than older versions.=C2=A0 Has anybody else gotten FreeBSD to work with recent versions of the Pinebook Pro?

Thanks for any information.
