--ew6BAiZeqk4r7MaW Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable I've talked with Andrew Turner, who gave me a little bit of info to use as a starting point. We need to get U-Boot EFI working on the RPI3 first. Luiz Otavio O Souza is the current U-Boot expert in FreeBSD, so I'm CC'ing him here. He's here at the Dev Summit, so I'm hoping he might have time to help out. If I can't get the right knowledgeable people involved, I'm going to cancel the hackathon. I simply lack the knowledge regarding ARM64 and the RPI3 hardware to do anything myself over the course of the next four days. The ARM64 reference documentation is several thousands of pages, and I'm only a few hundred pages in. I'll continue on, but I still have a ways to go. ;) I'm really hoping to get some help from the FreeBSD community.
