FreeBSD Installer for Neo?

Moderators: chensy, FATechsupport

Hi folks.

Anybody have any leads for installation of FreeBSD installer for any of these platforms? I have a NanoPi Neo2 and would love to get FreeBSD installed. In fact I know of a company that would purchase many of these if FreeBSD could be installed. It's an industrial OS that's preferred, and very very small footprint that is headless. Wonderful hardware needs FreeBSD.

All insight appreciated.

Cheers

Google shows after a 1 Minute search, that at this time only the NanoPi Neo (H3-CPU) is supported by FreeBSD:

Thanks to Ganbold Tsagaankhuu FreeBSD runs on NEO. He has created FreeBSD 12.0-CURRENT image and it can be downloaded from: https://www.mediafire.com/folder/bfbs771c3ajar/FreeBSD

https://wiki.freebsd.org/FreeBSD/arm/Allwinner
H3 Supported Boards
OrangePi One and Lite
NanoPI NEO

Running FreeBSD on NanoPI NEO or OrangePI Zero

BUT its all for the normal NanoPi Neo (H3-CPU) and
NOT for the Neo2 (H5-CPU)
.....maybe some time later also H5
