Only outputting 'CCCCC' continuously I let it run only a few minutes and there were several hundred of 'C'. It did not boot into FreeBSD. (No response to any key press or attempt to send break) There was some difficulty to boot back into Linux I had to leave power disconnected for a while before I got Arch to boot again: The Arch Linux uSD this: U-Boot SPL 2014.07 (Aug 10 2014 - 19:47:18) ** Partition 1 not valid on device 0 ** spl_register_fat_device: fat register err - -1 ### ERROR ### Please RESET the board ### CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC U-Boot SPL 2014.07 (Aug 10 2014 - 19:47:18) reading u-boot.img reading u-boot.img U-Boot 2014.07 (Aug 10 2014 - 19:47:18) Arch Linux ARM I stopped the CCCC by pulling out 5V power and waiting then the Arch Linux uSD started again. The CCCC was starting and stopping in the Linux case, but was steady output in FreeBSD case.
