List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Mon, 02 Mar 2015 04:19:58 -0000 Hi, I am trying to boot into FreeBSD 10.1 (or 11) on a CuBox-i4pro. I've tried from images generated using the crochet tool (using Wandboard-Quad) - and also using pre-built/WandBoard images from ftp.freebsd.org. I've dd'd the u-boot.imx file per README instructions from the sysutils/u-boot-cubox-hummingboard port. I believe the CuBox is reaching the first boot stages - evidenced by appearance of red LED on front of box (and a brief appearance of Solid-Run name/logo on connected HDMI monitor). But then the screen blanks (the red LED remains on until I remove power) and I'm at a loss for what to do next. I'm sure I'm missing something really basic re: informing the boot loader where to "go next" - and wondering/hoping someone else has managed to get further. I sure will appreciate any pointers. Thanks, Greg
