Hi, so i have managed to install OBSD 7.4 on the H68K.
Here is my current Tianocore EFI build: https://extrowerk.com/storage/20231205_Hinlink_H68K/BSD_EFI/H68K_EFI.img And here is the current DTB: https://extrowerk.com/storage/20231205_Hinlink_H68K/BSD_EFI/rk3568-opc-h68k.dtb dd the img to an sd card, dd the installer74.img to a usb disk, then mount the EFI partition, and copy the dtb into a freshly created rockchip folder. Boot with "set tty fb0", install onto a GPT partitioned (important!) USB disk (eMMC is not yet working). Copy the DTB to the installed disk EFI partition, then boot using "set tty fb0" and "machine acpi on" and run: # config -e -o /bsd.new /bsd and disable rkdrm* Then you have to add the following to /etc/boot.conf: set tty fb0 boot bsd.new Then it should work just fine. Here is my dmesg output: https://pastebin.com/raw/4xfM9m4G CLI + Xorg works ok so far. I haven't tested the ETH ports yet. TODO: - fix emmc - fix rkdrm - fix m.2 wifi ( i have replaced the original with an intel one, but while the sstem recognizes it, it doesn't tries to install any firmware. Currently i use a USB attached wifi dongle instead) - 2 ETH interface have all-zero MAC address Hope it helps.
