Hi,

I have tried to use a FreeBSD-13.0-RELEASE memory card image on my RPI2B but I
get the dreaded rainbow screen. (Also tried 13.1-RC6 same result)

I have use the following command to create the memory card;

 dd if=FreeBSD-13.0-arm-armv6-RPI-B.img of=/dev/da0 bs=1m conv=sync

The image writes without issue but when placed in the RPI2B it will not boot.

The two file systems are moutable using a memory card reader and plugging that
into another FreeBSD machine;

 mkdir /msdos
 mount -t msdosfs /dev/da0s1 /msdos
 mount /dev/da0s2a /mnt

I have also tried FreeBSD-12.3-RELEASE image using the same dd command and the
RPI2B boots just fine. i.e. works as intended.

The power supply is a good quality one with an output of 3.1 amps.

Thanks

Greg
