I have several 3Bs, one 3B+ (since that's the current model), and > a passel of 2s. :-)? The 2s are fine but I'm building 11.STABLE for > those.? Can't for the 3s, as the code to run those isn't in 11. Ok which of PI3B or PI3B+ or is it both that you are having serial console issues on? Also can you try: http://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/ISO-IMAGES/12.0/FreeBSD-12.0-RC1-arm64-aarch64-RPI3.img.xz on both boards and report success/failure/problems?
