Hi Glen,

this announce mentions just amd64 and i386 as able to use freebsd-update.
On the BETA2 announce there was a mention of aarch64 as well
(https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-stable/2021-February/093081.html).

I then tried to use it now on a 13.0-BETA4 system:

root at rpi4_bsd:~ # freebsd-update -r 13.0-RC2 upgrade
src component not installed, skipped
Looking up update.FreeBSD.org mirrors... 3 mirrors found.
Fetching metadata signature for 13.0-BETA4 from update4.freebsd.org...
done. Fetching metadata index... done.
Fetching 1 metadata patches. done.

The following components of FreeBSD seem to be installed:
kernel/generic kernel/generic-dbg world/base world/base-dbg

The following components of FreeBSD do not seem to be installed:

Does this look reasonable (y/n)?

The system is:

FreeBSD rpi4_bsd 13.0-BETA4 FreeBSD 13.0-BETA4 #0
releng/13.0-n244592-e32bc253629: Fri Feb 26 05:53:09 UTC 2021
root at releng1.nyi.freebsd.org:/usr/obj/usr/src/arm64.aarch64/sys/GENERIC arm64


I did not typed "y" yet. Is it safe to go through with it?

Thanks.
