Hello,

FreeBSD-11.0-CURRENT-arm-armv6-RPI2-20160121-r294499 did not boot on a =
Rasberry Pi 2 B with the Gert VGA 666 adaptor connected to the =
Raspberry's GPIO port. This adaptor basically is a passive resistor =
network, using most of the GPIO's pins.

My guess is that FreeBSD tries to activate the serial port on GPIO and =
this fails. Is there a solution to turn off the serial port or set the =
config.txt to enable booting?

By the way I've managed to get VGA 666 working for FreeBSD with the same =
settings and files as for Linux and Risc OS. Of course booting stops =
after the message=20
[code] Hit any key to stop autoboot: 0 [/code]=
