My setup has the edk2 binary on an SD Card and the FreeBSD install on SATA (though it booted fine from the USB originally to install it). An intel PCIE nic seems to work fine as well, but I’ve not really played with it exhaustively to see what works. I used the 18.09.4 UEFI image from here: https://github.com/MarvellEmbeddedProcessors/edk2-open-platform/wiki/Binaries Did something like: dd if=/root/flash-image-18.09.4.bin bs=512 seek=1 of=<path-to-sd-device> conv=sync to copy to the SD card. And it basically booted straight away with no issue. Sorted this based on discussion in this thread: https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-arm/2019-December/020823.html -mhome | help
