Hi,

Im currently testing this image: FreeBSD-armv6-12.0-RPI2-310476.img.gz [1]
on my RBPI2. I need a hardware clock which will work with this image. Couple
of questions:

1. If I understood right I need to recompile the kernel since there is no hardware
clock support on the mentioned image … Right ?

2. Is there support for Rasclock [2] based on NXP PCF2127AT chipset ?

3. Still there the regarding NTP and hardware clock when OS was dying on such
setup ? (you need to enable sysctl machdep.rtc_save_period=0 to workaround)

Thanks,
Stefan
