I don't have any rpi* here to help you more so hopefully someone else can/will. -- Emmanuel Vadot <[email protected]> <[email protected]> _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-arm To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
