The production is halted. http://www.raspberrypi.org/archives/781 The key sentence is: There may now be a slight delay in later batches if there’s a problem sourcing enough magnetic jacks (we’ve got teams hunting them down already); all the stock of jacks we believed we had in place and ready to turn into the ethernet ports on your Raspberry Pis turn out not to be the correct part, so we’re having to start again and move through the negotiating/ordering/delivery cycle as fast as we can. Somewhat more conditional than a simple halted to my eyes. That could be me being optimistic but I hope not. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

The way it looks to me, it's something like The first batch will be a bit late; later batches may be more expensive, or may not happen, or maybe they'll just be a little late -- or maybe we'll have enough of a windfall of good fortune to get back on schedule. Obviously, I'm hoping for one of the latter two, rather than the former two. -- Chad Perrin [ original content licensed OWL: http://owl.apotheon.org ] ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Re: Raspberry Pi
The freebsd-arm@ list is where it is being discussed and progressing, don't think anybody has the hardware yet.

The complaints seemed to center around a lack of docs, but I don't think this is still relevant. The fact that several Linux variants are ported suggests plenty of available doc. Also, there is a detailed doc on the Broadcom chip on the RP website. Now, if we could just actuall GET the silly things it would be nice :) -- --- Tim Daneliuk ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
Raspberry Pi
