     I apologize for the noise and rampant complaints on the maillist.

     Someone just revealed to me that there is a supported ARM hardware
     list :

         https://www.freebsd.org/releases/14.2R/hardware/#proc-arm-64

     Clearly the Raspberry 5 is *not* there.

     Also, at the very bottom of the page :

         https://wiki.freebsd.org/arm/Raspberry%20Pi%205

     I see the words "Ethernet only via USB, uses up one USB port."
     There I also see "Network occasionally fails to start."

     So therefore my shiney new gifted to me RPi5 with 8G will have
     to run some Linux variant. For now.
