I doubt there are many people trying to get eOn running under FreeBSD, but I have just this minute got it working. I have tested fully on 4.x and as far as binary execution on 5.x so it presumably works on both (but I will report back with confirmation).
Firstly, enable Linux emulation (I have only tried linux_base-8). After attempting to execute the eOn binary you will get the following error message:
$ ./client
ELF binary type "0" not known.
To fix this, do the following:
$ brandelf -t Linux client
Now, when you execute the client it will work! My FreeBSD client just finished its first work unit, so I can confirm everything seems to be working fine. Hopefully this information will be useful to someone else and save them the work of figuring it out. ;)
Oh and benchmarks may come at a later date. :D
