No, I believe you are talking about MachTen, which is an app that runs BSD
inside of Mac OS.  FreeBSD can run natively on the Mac hardware without
Mach, but that would require rebooting.

Actually, I am not sure if FreeBSD runs on Motorolas at all.  I cannot find
any mention of it on www.freebsd.org.  NetBSD runs on Macs, and I believe
OpenBSD does, too.  Of course, Mac OS X is basically BSD Lite, so that's
another BSD.
