Hello all! I'm new to the arm world. I've bought a Raspberry PI 4 that came with it's raspbian OS working as expected. As it comes with systemd, I flashed a Devuan Image on an empty Micro SD card via "dd" from my freebsd PC and now it runs happily. From dmesg on Devuan I see: [ 0.000000] Machine model: Raspberry Pi 4 Model B Rev 1.4 (I can post the whole dmesg output, if relevant, tough it is a bit long) Being Rev 1.4 > 1.2, I did replace u-boot.bin following wiki instructions found at https://wiki.freebsd.org/arm/Raspberry%20Pi and flashed the 13.0-RELEASE with dd on a clean Micro SD card. Now, if I try to boot from it I only get a colored patch on the screen attached to the RPI 4 through the same HDMI cable that works well with reaspbian and Devuan. What did I do wrong? Thanks to all in advance, Luciano. -- /"\ /Via A.
