Re: rock64 verbose boot hangs

I expect that you may to need to specify more context:
the Rock64 that I have access to boots fine with boot -v .

# uname -apKU
FreeBSD Rock64_RPi_4_3_2v1p2 14.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 14.0-CURRENT #12 main-n249019-0637070b5bca-dirty: Tue Aug 31 02:24:20 PDT 2021     root@CA72_16Gp_ZFS:/usr/obj/BUILDs/main-CA72-nodbg-clang/usr/main-src/arm64.aarch64/sys/GENERIC-NODBG-CA72  arm64 aarch64 1400032 1400032

It is a UFS context.

For reference:

But, as I remember, there seemed to be vintage variations
for the Rock64 that were not obvious and for which varoius
examples have had problems booting when others did not. (I
am not claiming to know that the specifics of your case
are an example.) As I remember some folks have made
adjustments to get things working. It is possible that the
explicit version for the Rock64 might be important, even
if other variations might also be at issue.

There also could be issues of U-Boot vintage that might be
involved. What I'm using reports:

. . .

If I remember right, later versions were a problem
last I tried but I've not been trying newer ones
in some time (on other types of devices aw well).
