Has support for the Raspberry Pi W-Zero been dropped in FreeBSD 14?

could you really have even called it supported if we never supported arguably the most crucial function on it?

the zero 2 w seems like it should be a decent path forward, at least, though with the same caveat re: W support

I think I might have a zero 2 w (I initially thought it was the 32-bit origional one)

I suppose I should try the "FreeBSD-14.1-RELEASE-arm64-aarch64-RPI.img"?

you could try it but you'll need to pull in some more .dtb

The 13.2 image was having kernel panic when a USB ethernet was plugged in: download.morante.net/unibia/screens…aspberry-Pi-Zero-W/Rpi-Zero-W-1.mp4

need to snatch bcm2710-rpi-zero-2-w.dtb out of sysutils/rpi-firmware

How do I do that?

install the port and copy the .dtb over, but if 13.2 booted that far then iirc you do have the original zero w

hmm, aparently my past self ordered 3 of these, each a diffrent model

ah, nice. Looks like the 13.4 pre-release image from earlier today is working okay with the USB ethernet

nope/ nm :)

kernel panic as soon as I SSH in

hi, I have a FreeBSD 13.3 with ZFS and 2 zpool : zystem that contain the system and zata that contain other thing. When I try to boot, it try to launch the zata zpool and not the zystem. I have verify and the param bootfs is correct. Also loader.conf contain the correct value too

someone allready get this problem ?

i guess you're saying you have vfs.root.mountfrom="zfs:zroot" or whatever the case may be in loader.conf kapouik ?

scoobybejesus, vfs.root.mountfrom="zfs:zystem/ROOT/default"

I allready verify this and it is good.

I have done a grep -r zata / and find nothing interesting

actually, I have boot the system with an USB key

*sigh* anyone have scli work recently from ports?

what happens when you try it?

The other day ,  I rebooted my system  after trying to set up KDE , that failing .    Next boot said something with wrong with zfs , I have scrubed it with zpool in freebsd live cd yet my  system will not boot any ideas

i would check the rc.conf in case the issue is some formatting issue due to fiddling with enabling things for the gui desktop and login mgr and whatnot.. but maybe a longshot

can you be more specific about "something wrong with zfs" ?

Is it still possible to build my own FreeBSD 14.1 image with armv6? or has support been completely removed?

tuaris: it's still in 14.x but you can't build release images

or rather, the build infrastructure in src can't create release images

I remember using something a few years ago to make my own customized images. I guess that's been deprecated

i ran into this the other day, apparently the armv6 release build are specific to (older versions of) the RPi and are built in a special way i don't know the details of

your best option might be to install with an older release image (if you can find one) and then upgrade to 14.1, which you can cross-build on another system

This tool isn't useful anymore, right? github.com/freebsd/crochet

I remember now, it was release.sh (crochet was one I used way way before)

out of curiosity, how small can a "thick" jail actually be? those seem like they're the closest to what containers on Linux are like, where you have to instantiate the container from a full distro image (minus the kernel, of course)

but with Linux containers you can often get by with something like Alpine, which is a remarkably small image, like I think only 10-20MB, iirc

minibsd.org i wonder if this would contain the kernel too.. seems like it .. but those quoted sizes are from some ooooold freebsd's

I saw one suggestion to utilize pkgbase and only install the required packages. I wonder if something like Bastille does anything that makes this easier, though
