Ok, that site seems to be the obviuos starting point for a FreeBSD port
too. First reading through the documentation and then trying to get the
instruction simulator running. Unfortunately, the ISS is only available
as binary RPM - but that shouldn't stop us.
The ISS is available here: http://www.x86-64.org/downloads
BTW: I know a few of the persons at Virtutech (the guys behind Simics -
the other simulator). Let me try and see if they would be interested in
letting the FreeBSD project have access in some way to their ISS. The
worst that could possibly happen is that we get a "no way".
