.. also you can read this :
https://github.com/raspberrypi/tools/issues/114
, a cool user =E2=80=9Eforced=E2=80=9C a commit related to the =
boot-issue.

I have compiled that armstub-version and copied over but of course I =
didn=E2=80=99t expect it to fix our issue by one trial,
because I have no clue where or by whom the fbsd-armstub-binaries were =
compiled and merged in  .
I only =E2=80=9Eknow=E2=80=9C(or GUESS;-) that currently the =
gonzo-psci-thing for starting CPU is dependent of the armstubs
