This page contains information about the FreeBSD port to Fujitsu®'s
+ SPARC64® and Sun Microsystem's UltraSPARC® architectures.
+ Discussion of this port takes
place on the
freebsd-sparc
mailing list.
Table Of Contents
UltraSPARC is a
Tier 2 architecture, and as such is not fully supported by the
FreeBSD project. Although fully functional, the port
is not as mature as the existing i386 or amd64 ports.
A summary of supported systems follows. SMP is supported on all supported
systems that contain more than 1 processor. For full details please see
the
release notes of the
release you are using.
