Which image for Pi Zero 2 W?
reddit / freebsd

Does anyone know which image is supposed to work on the Raspberry Pi
Zero 2 W, if any?  I tried both of the available Pi-specific images
for 13.1, but neither seem to work.  Searches of Reddit and the
Internet have been unsuccessful so far.  Thanks.

so, builtin wifi is not supported on any rpi board, so there is little
chance that it'll work wit zero2.

If image for rpi3 and rpi4 does not work, you can hope that someone at
freebsd-arm@ mailing list will know how to get it to work.

Or it may be not supported at all.

I am using a USB ethernet adapter, so don't need wi-fi.  I checked and
it works fine on a 3B+, so I was hoping the similar hardware in the
Zero 2 would work with one of the images for the 3.  Guess I'll try
the mailing list.

That is correct, if it works on 3B it should work on zero 2

Well, it's diffrent board, it's possible that freebsd developers don't
yet have one, and if they don't have it, they can't make sure it
works.

The fix may be simple, like putting new DTB or board-specific uboot in
the image. I didn't see anyone talking about zero2 on mailing list.
