Hi, I have tryes to launch NetBSD 10.1 in an OrangePI PC Plus 2E Allwinner H3 board. It doesn't boot. It can't disable EHCI devices and then freezes. Also if you force disable EHCI via userconf is doesn't recognize USB tethering and is unable to tontinue to boot. It's a aomplete fail. NetBSD 9.0 works.

 You need to tell us more details. Are you using the official 10.1 image
 from armbsd.org for this board?

 That should point to:

 https://nycdn.netbsd.org/pub/arm/NetBSD-10.1-release/NetBSD-10-earmv7hf--orangepi-plus2e.img.gz


 When you just boot this, what exact messages do you get? Please provide a full
 boot log if possible.

 This is a non-fatal message that happens on many machines.

 OK, we need to identify where it hangs.

 Do you use a serial console or a USB keyboard?
 With a serial console you should be able to send a break and get to the
 kernel debugger - if that works, enter "bt" to get a stack trace and
 copy the output.

 Could you provide dmesg output for 9.0 and for 10.1 with userconf disabled?
 The latter might require a USB stick for transport.
