Raspberry Pi 2 and FreeBSD 11 and bind 9.9 for a name server
Just thought I'd outline the steps to bring a Raspberry Pi 2 up with FreeBSD and then create a DNS server with bind. This is for the Raspberry Pi2, but the only difference between this and any other supported board is the file you grab.
The TL;DR version
Download the image, use xz to decompress and dd to a SD card. Boot the SD card with a serial console, create a new account to log into. Install the appropriate packages. Configure named. Tell the world about it (router and registrar). Profit! All quite simple, though there were a few snags that are in the 'Long Version'
Long Version, so much detail
First, download the FreeBSD image from https://www.freebsd.org/where.html. I'm doing the SD Card Image for FreeBSD 11.0-RC1. This gave me the file FreeBSD-11.0-RC1-arm-armv6-RPI2.img.xz in my downloads area. If you're doing a different image, adjust below.
Next, I needed to create a microSD card for the RPi-2. I plugged a 4GB SD Card into my USB adapter, and the device appeared as da2 on my FreeBSD box.
will uncompress it and splat it onto the SD card.xz -d < ~/FreeBSD-11.0-RC1-arm-armv6-RPI2.img.xz | sudo dd of=/dev/da2 bs=1m
Next, I connected to my RPi2's serial port with tip and the Adafruit USB to TTY Adapter:
tip -115200 ucom1When booting, I got this log. Yours might not be identical, but the login: at the end should be the same.
So, now we have a remote login (or we could have used the default freebsd/freebsd user).U-Boot 2015.04 (Aug 12 2016 - 16:50:57)DRAM: 944 MiBWARNING: Caches not enabledRPI 2 Model BMMC: bcm2835_sdhci: 0reading uboot.env** Unable to read "uboot.env" from mmc0:1 **Using default environmentIn: serialOut: lcdErr: lcdNet: Net Initialization SkippedNo ethernet found.Hit any key to stop autoboot: 0Booting from: mmc 0 ubldrreading ubldr272013 bytes read in 213 ms (1.2 MiB/s)## Starting application at 0x02000098 ...Consoles: U-Boot consoleCompatible U-Boot API signature found @0x3ab4a4c8FreeBSD/armv6 U-Boot loader, Revision 1.2(root@releng2.nyi.freebsd.org, Fri Aug 12 17:05:59 UTC 2016)DRAM: 944MBNumber of U-Boot devices: 1U-Boot env: loaderdev='mmc 0'Found U-Boot device: diskChecking unit=0 slice=partition= ... good.

Briefly, I commented out the part that binds to localhost and added a pointer to the master file for my zone. I setup stuff so secondaries could transfer out, and I could cross-mirror the secondaries.
So, once it was all running right, I changed rc.conf to enable it (as well as tweak the hostname from the default):
named_enable=yesNow the fun part: telling my router to forward DNS packets (port 53) to my FreeBSD box, and then telling my registrar the new IP address of my DNS server. And after the obligatory password snafu, I was able to get everything up and happy.
Removed the default 'freebsd' account and changed the root password to something useful, and I was done.

why bind9? now that unbound is in base, unbound + nsd feels like a better combo.
also any thought on the upgrade process? on Linux RPi, I use apticron but I don't know about anything similar for FreeBSD packages.
I'm familiar with bind9.
freebsd-update should be useful to update the base.
pkg update should be useful for the rest.
