Any howtos booting FreeBSD straight up from a USB SSD drive.  ( Can already boot up from a single USB flash drive ).

Share what goals you have and what documents you have created to help the next guy out.  See you on Telegram and I appreciate your answers shared here FreeBSD-arm mailing list.
I have many url links to documents like U-BOOT at the booting-500-gb-ssd URL above.  What nice URLS that you read documents from have you used lately to go from scratch to bringing 
up your Raspberry Pi with FreeBSD? or other Linuxes?  Share on my blog post in a comment or mention here on your next posts
