I have built a new u-boot using sysutils/u-boot-cubox-hummingboard, but substituting the u-boot source tree from ports with a freshly cloned one: git clone https://github.com/SolidRun/u-boot-imx6.git Applying the patches from the port delivered a rejected chunk whom I have applied "manually". After building I have copied the u-boot.imx file to the image file as described in the README file. Booting the system, ca. 4GB (instead of 2GB) of RAM was recognized: FreeBSD 11.0-ALPHA3 #2 r301815M: Sat Jun 11 05:11:51 UTC 2016 root@wqtest.intranet:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/IMX6 arm FreeBSD clang version 3.8.0 (tags/RELEASE_380/final 262564) (based on LLVM 3.8.0) VT: init without driver. CPU: Cortex A9-r2 rev 10 (Cortex-A core) Supported features: ARM_ISA THUMB2 JAZELLE THUMBEE ARMv4 Security_Ext WB enabled LABT branch prediction disabled LoUU:2 LoC:2 LoUIS:2 Cache level 1: 32KB/32B 4-way data cache WB Read-Alloc Write-Alloc 32KB/32B 4-way instruction cache Read-Alloc real memory = 4025483264 (3839 MB) avail memory = 3933708288 (3751 MB) FreeBSD/SMP: Multiprocessor System Detected: 4 CPUs But I was not able to use the external USB harddisks. I got error messages like: usb_err_nomem kstack allocation failed. After I added kern.nbuf="8000" to /boot/loader.conf, the error messages disappeared. The value "8000" is a guess, the old value was around 7100. As a test I have successfully build a new kernel. Only USB1 port is working.help
