Hi,


Just guessing. I assume you have connected a HDMI screen? It might be that =
the default output is on a serial console (which you don=E2=80=99t have con=
nected).
Can you ssh to the RPI?
It is also possible to set some variables to choose the hdmi as output.=20


Anyway. I don=E2=80=99t use hdmi on my rpi so I might be totally wrong here=
.=20


Regards,
Ronald

<br />
I am new to FreeBSD for any architecture.<br />
<br />
Was trying out FreeBSD 13 downloaded from here[1] on RPI4 8G device.<br />
However the device did not go past the splash screen.<br />
<br />
As some web pages suggest (probably those were for RPI40), tried inserting<=
br />
the sd card into a USB adapter and tried booting from USB. But the device<b=
r />
then shows &quot;insert SD card&quot; message.<br />
<br />
I had dd'ed it on an sdcard. This operation looks ok as I am able to mount<=
br />
and examine the sdcard's boot partition on Linux.<br />
<br />
The device normally runs Raspberry OS and is working fine.<br />
<br />
Please suggest if there is something I could try.<br />
