No no, everything is surprisingly good, you made a quite good job, no =
mismatches :-)
It began to work with me with the following files downloaded from =
RPI-foundation and copied to
 Msdos-partition :
bcm2711-rpi-4-b.dtb(already there if I remember correctly)
fixup4.dat
fixup4cd.dat
fixup4db.dat
fixup4x.dat
start4.elf
start4cd.elf
start4db.elf
start4x.elf

Additionally the WHOLE(not only a part) folder =E2=80=9Eoverlays=E2=80=9C =
in msdos-partition had to be overwritten=20
with the files from RPI-foundation.
And of course: u-boot.bin was overwritten with the one from sysutils.
My next steps were mounting the SD-card on a network-capable =
fbsd-machine ,
then checkout src head, put the SD-card back to RPI, boot and compile to =
custom kernel/world.
What will follow is getting WIFI with "a" proprietary brcmfmac-file over =
SDIO .
For this please take a look again at a patch where you were involved =
afaik:=20
https://reviews.freebsd.org/D15955
If that will be merged we should be able to boot from uSD AND implement =
WIFI first to get network
I did that on netbsd without problems with their SDIO-implementation).
(I didn`t find the time yet  to test that D15955 patch, but will try it)
All other things can be done later =E2=80=A6
So, this was the =E2=80=9Etutorial=E2=80=9C ;-) - perhaps tonight then =
for the public in the forums ...

Thank you
