@werdahias Did you try the pre-concatenated image? https://nycdn.netbsd.org/pub/arm/NetBSD-11.0-release/NetBSD-11-aarch64--rock64.img.gz
@werdahias maybe it's outputting to the breakfast^W serial console? you can use the creds_msdos system to make the board automatically start a ssh server for login on first boot.
@werdahias not this exact board but here are my notes for the RockPro64. Maybe you can find tricks or ideas there.

@werdahias I've mucked with ARM a fair bit, and RISC-V (similar situation), under OpenBSD. It's tricky, and the OpenBSD docs at least are far from adequate. I suggest posting everything you did, in detail... screenshots, etc. Again, I'm not exactly familiar with those, but if there isn't a video driver, you may only have serial console. And if there's a problem, serial console is where you'd see it. I personally never would have managed to bootstrap OpenBSD on ARM/RISC-V without that.
