After working with my raspberry pi 4 with 8GB of ram and wondering why it wouldn't boot FreeBSD 14.2:
Crash:
mmcsd0: Error indicated: 1 Timeout
Mounting from ufs:/dev/ufs/rootfs failed with error 19
After running across this thread: https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/...-mountroot-mmcsd0-error-19-please-help.94007/
It appears to be a memory issue in models with 4GB+ ram and FreeBSD 14.2 overlapping address spaces based on what others have commented on?
I was able to optimize the workaround a bit with the following to get it to boot and provide a little bit more memory.
Workaround:
edit the config.txt file in the EFI partition, and add the following value under the [pi4] section:
total_mem=4015
Once booted here is what FreeBSD shows as Physical Memory
sysctl hw.physmem | awk '{printf "%.2f MB\n", $2 / 1024 / 1024}'
3916.53 MB
Until this bug is sorted out could the following Raspberry Pi - FreeBSD wiki be updated with this information under Raspberry Pi 4 Known Issues?

Thank you so much again and appreciate the community with all the help!!
