I boot and run a RPi5 via EDK2 in the microsd card slot and a USB3
UFS system media (that has lots of different swap partition sizes
for use on various machines with widely varying amounts of RAM):

# uname -apKU
FreeBSD aarch64-main-pkgs 15.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 15.0-CURRENT #5 =
main-n269589-9dcf39575efb-dirty: Sun Apr 21 01:42:00 PDT 2024     =
root@aarch64-main-pbase:/usr/obj/BUILDs/main-CA76-nodbg-clang/usr/main-src=
/arm64.aarch64/sys/GENERIC-NODBG-CA76 arm64 aarch64 1500018 1500018

That kernel is at: /boot/kernel.CA76-NODBG/kernel in my context.

But I also have kernels that I got from:

https://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:15:aarch64/base_latest/

that boot it as well:

# strings /boot/kernel.GENERIC-NODEBUG/kernel | grep 15.0-
@(#)FreeBSD 15.0-CURRENT main-n269581-dfa39133b333 GENERIC-NODEBUG
FreeBSD 15.0-CURRENT main-n269581-dfa39133b333 GENERIC-NODEBUG
15.0-CURRENT

And the debug version (witness and such):

# strings /boot/kernel/kernel | grep 15.0-
@(#)FreeBSD 15.0-CURRENT main-n269581-dfa39133b333 GENERIC
FreeBSD 15.0-CURRENT main-n269581-dfa39133b333 GENERIC
15.0-CURRENT

(It has beem a while since I updated.)

All these kernels boot a world that I got from the same:

https://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:15:aarch64/base_latest/

I do have another world in a directory tree that I built that I
can chroot to.
