From http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/install-hw.html :

"Supported Hardware
FreeBSD currently runs on a wide variety of ISA, VLB, EISA, and PCI
bus based PCs, ranging from the 386SX to Pentium class machines
(though the 386SX is not recommended). Support for generic IDE or ESDI
drive configurations, various SCSI controllers, and network and serial
cards is also provided. FreeBSD also supports IBM's microchannel (MCA)
bus.

In order to run FreeBSD, a recommended minimum of eight megabytes of
RAM is suggested. Sixteen megabytes is the preferred amount of RAM as
you may have some trouble with anything less than sixteen depending on
your hardware."

So let it be written. So let it be done.
