Trying the 23.7.12 image on the RPI4 and I  cannot get it to boot. Tried updating the PI firmware and bootloader copied the config-rpi4-txt to config.txt I just get a rainbow screen on boot..

Pi is fine and boots other OS fine from both sd card and USB.

Any advice?

Cheers

I dont't have the RPI4 but with my Orange Pi 5+ I needed to flash an UEFI bootloader instead of the usual u-boot bootloader used with most OPI operating systems. I think there's an UEFI version for RPI devices too.

Realtek drama...

Thank you, that did it! I actually used the image from Matheusber instead since it already have the right driver installed, but pointed to your repository for updates. Now it seems to run fine and has been routing and firewalling for a day now.

OPNsense 24.1 aarch64 ....  is working well on Orange Pi 5 Plus.

Is it still working for you? I also have an OPi 5+. The system boots and I have managed to install it to SSD and also install the rt8125 driver. But it always kernel panics a short while after I bring an interface online. When I try to assign interfaces in the menu it panics more or less right away, if I bring it up manually from the terminal it crashes after a few seconds to a few minutes.
