FreeBSD install on Raspberry Pi model B+ failed

T

Tchupy

Hi all,

I try to install FreeBSD on an old Raspberry Pi model B+ but I failed every attempts.. So I'm looking for help to understand what I'm doing wrong..

To begin, I try to use different version : FreeBSD-12.4-RELEASE-arm-armv6-RPI-B.img.xz, FreeBSD-13.1-RELEASE-arm-armv6-RPI-B.img.xz and even a FreeBSD-14.0 version but I got same issue: system cannot mount rootfs.
I tried to burn the image with dd or with Etcher tool, but there is no change...

Here is the logs I get when system is booting :

I don't know why it sees a 000000 disk-ID..
I tried to install linux on the same SDCARD (and same Rasp Pi device) without any issue..

I tried to guess the partition but no success :
Code: 
mountroot> ufs:/dev/mmcsd0a5

Mounting from ufs:/dev/mmcsd0a5 failed with error 19.

mmcsd0: Error indicated: 1 Timeout

Mounting from ufs:/dev/mmcsd0a5 failed with error 5

I checked the SDCARD FS table on an Ubuntu system :
Rich (BB code): 
tchupy@Ubuntu-1:~$ sudo lsblk -f /dev/sdb

I also managed to mount the ufs partition to validate that I had access to all FreeBSD folders..

Now, I really have no clue on what I can do.. So maybe here, anyone has an idea to help me..

thanks a lot
 
Same issue..

Code: 
mountroot> ufs:/dev/mmcsd0s2a
Trying to mount root from ufs:/dev/mmcsd0s2a [ ]...
mountroot: waiting for device /dev/mmcsd0s2a...
Mounting from ufs:/dev/mmcsd0s2a failed with error 19.
 
the card shows some data errors
try another one
otherwise looks ok
i have a pi zero running 13.0 and dmesg looks pretty much the same
 
Hi
I bought a new SDcard and.... it's working !
so it was just a SDcard errors :( (don't know why there was no issue with Linux, but whatever)

Thanks
