Well, I did run FreeBSD HEAD on my Xbox only a couple of weeks ago and
it worked properly. I remember jhb@ made some PCI changes some time ago
that caused some breakage, but that got fixed as far as I know.

So what kind of problems are you experiencing?

Sure. It was pretty awesome to see FreeBSD run on an Xbox, but nowadays
you can even get Android phones having better specs. Say, if the Xbox
code makes it hard to implement some kind of cool feature, I really
wouldn't mind seeing it go, as long as it's left the way it is in the
stable branches.
