FreeBSD on Sun's UltraSPARC T1

w00t, the -HEAD branch of FreeBSD (a.k.a FreeBSD 7.0-CURRENT) runs on Sun's UltraSPARC T1 processor systems :)
to get a feel what kind of an achievement this is: the UltraSPARC T1 systems is in essence a 32 cpu system so this is massive SMP'ing.
so when one talks about scaling, i'd say the FreeBSD Release Engineering team has done a wonderful job getting their development branch to run on Sun's T1 platform.
here's a link to the dmesg of the particular system.
