Hi, > You won't be putting FreeBSD on the AS/400 anytime soon. AS/400 has a > totally different supporting architecture when compared to things like > the Macintosh, which I believe is based on the CHRP (Common Hardware > Reference Platform), the same as the RS/6000's. Not so much, RS/6000 and AS/400 have more than 90% common in design and this will increase with next generations of AS/400 (why bother with 2 different hardware lines if one can handle both os ?)
