--FsNnrdbdcndbhhjb Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii; format=flowed Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable (not sure where else to post this, -arm seemed most appropiate at first glance) As per subject. I went looking for armv7-rpi2b images. I could find aarch64-rpi images and arm-armv6-rpb images but for some reason the armv7-rpi2b image is called armv7-GENERICSD[1]. The only way of working out if it could be suitable for rpi2b was to download, unpack the image and mount the msdos partition with mdconfig to see that among the files there, there's bcm2709-rpi-2-b.dtb. There's lots of armv7 hardware out there not rpi2b. There is only one armv6 image and that is labelled as rpi-b. There is only one armv7 image and that's labelled as GENERICSD ?!?=20 1. why can't a naming convention be decided on and adhered to 2. when naming convention changes, please make some sort of announcement on the main freebsd website.
