Dear Balanga,

I run 11.2 on my Sheevaplug (armv5 also).

uname -a
FreeBSD sheeva2.klop.ws 11.2-RELEASE-p4 FreeBSD 11.2-RELEASE-p4 #4 r339336M: Sat Oct 13 23:31:51 CEST 2018     builder@rpi3:/data/src/obj-11.2/arm.arm/data/src/11.2/sys/SHEEVAPLUG  arm

It has a ports checkout using portsnap. And that works pretty well.
Just do:
portsnap auto
cd /usr/ports/shells/bash (or whatever port you wish to install)
make install
make clean

I think that is the most simple approach for you to go forward.

Regards,
Ronald.

PS: Sorry for top-posting, my current mail client does not help in this very well.

Hi,

On my Allwinner NanoPI NEO2 (H5 aarch64 based) the I2C("allwinner,sun6i-a31-i2c" compatible, debug messages enabled) shows this message:

root@bsd-nanopi:~ # i2c -v -f /dev/iic0 -a0x3c -d r -c 1
dev: /dev/iic0, addr: 0x3c, r/w:twsi_locked_start(): no ACK (status: 08) after sending slave address r, offset: 0x00, width: 8, count: 1
ioctl: error sending start condition

while trying to communicate with the attached NanoHAT OLED (SSD1306 based I2C 0.96inch 128x64 display).

Observing the bus with a logic analyzer shows, that between start condition and the address write there is a 10ms pause. Then the address gets written correctly and 
the device answers ACK. The I2C-clock is 100kHz which is confirmed by logic analyzer.

I'm assuming that this long delay between start condition and address write causes this error, but i do not find any problem in the i2c driver(iicbus/twsi*). I've crosschecked the board with the default Linux image, and I2C works there without problems and there is no visible delay between start and addr-wr.

Any ideas?
