I've done some further tests using the three previous RPI firmware releases to the current 20201227 release which does not work for me. Again, my environment is: HW: RPi4b 8GB, late 2020 purchase, Sept 3rd EEPROM OS: FreeBSD-13.0-CURRENT-arm64-aarch64-RPI-20201224-3cc0c0d66a0-255241.img.xz Boot device: 128GB USB3 SSD Releases tested: https://github.com/raspberrypi/firmware/archive/1.20201022.zip https://github.com/raspberrypi/firmware/archive/1.20201126.zip https://github.com/raspberrypi/firmware/archive/1.20201201.zip I am happy to say that, WITH PATCH D26853, all of these will successfully allow FreeBSD 20201224 to boot from USB SSD. Also that the vanilla 20201224 img (which I have checked includes the 20201201 firmware) also works fine, WITH PATCH D26853. I have also double-checked that the current firmware release, 20201227, with the patch, DOES NOT WORK. As previously reported, I just see a crash-loop in U-boot, if attempting to boot from USB SSD. With hindsight it was unfortunate that I made the assumption that my initial problem was due to not having the latest firmware. Test details, including dmesgs: Test #9 128GB USB3.0 SSD FreeBSD-13.0-CURRENT-arm64-aarch64-RPI-20201224-3cc0c0d66a0-255241.img.xz 20201224 U-Boot RPI firmware refreshed from firmware-1.20201022.zip bcm2711-rpi-4-b-dtb replaced with D26853 patched version Result: Boots OK.
