@k900:0upti.meK900Weirdly enough17:25:53
@k900:0upti.meK900I think it's because they don't get to any of the really weird bits17:26:02

@jonhermansen:matrix.orgjonhermansenMy plan was to boot using UEFI firmware. EDK2 is ported to Raspberry Pi. https://github.com/pftf/RPi4 For the first pass, I was thinking I can build the NixBSD image and copy this firmware by hand onto the boot media.19:29:14
@jonhermansen:matrix.orgjonhermansenI'm not too sure about firmware blobs that might be required for the GPU, but I will take a look. Probably I should put FreeBSD onto the Pi first just to test...19:30:16

@jonhermansen:matrix.orgjonhermansenExcuse the crappy photo quality. But I got the Pi booting :) Because the UEFI firmware supports ACPI, there's no need for devicetrees or anything.18:02:48
