Hello everybody,
I am Berni from Germany and quite new here in the mailing list.
I use several Raspberry 4B (8GB) with OpenBSD since a couple of years.
No problems, rock solid systems.

But now I 've got 2 pcs. BananaPi M5. I made some tests with Debian and
ArchLinux images and all teste were fine.
However the intention is to run OpenBSD on the Bananas. Reading this
mailing list I found nothing about BPi-M5 and OpenBSD, but some
information about running OpenBSD on Odroid C4/HC4. The Odroid shall be
quite similar to the Banana, an so I tried the hints about the Odroid:

I wrote the OpenBSD image (miniroot72.img, install 72.img) and then the
formware u-boot.bin.sd.bin onto the sdcard, connected the uart - but
nothing happend. All 3 leds on the Banana light on, but no byte came
over the uart.
Test the uart connection with the debug-uart of the Banana brought some
readable hard ware info.

My questions are: Is there any experience with the BPi-M5? Was it the
wrong way to try the Odroid u-boot? Or am I riding a dead horse with my
BPi-M5?

Thx & regards
Berni
