Ah, I see.. Well, I had the hardware long before, but the small amount 
of memory (32M) doesn't really allow me to compile any ports for arm, 
which I then need to have libraries and binaries to include into BSDBox 
via crunchgen..

I'll try qemu again later today, otherwise I'll have to start building 
FreeBSD on my Dreamplug, which has enough power to build everything. 
Have to check back on the status of NAND support in FreeBSD though.

Thanks for the info,

Mat
