current machine is running a linux version setup on an eMMC card:
Linux odroid 4.14.85-152 #1 SMP PREEMPT Mon Dec 3 03:00:02 -02 2018 armv7l armv7l armv7l GNU/Linux

>Description:
I 'burn' the image using the 'dd' command under linux to a 32GB SD card
I got 2 partitions (fdisk)
Device     Boot  Start      End  Sectors  Size Id Type
/dev/sdd1  *     32768   196607   163840   80M  c W95 FAT32 (LBA)
/dev/sdd2       196608 62410751 62214144 29.7G a9 NetBSD


mount shows only one partition:
/dev/sdd1 on /media/odroid/NETBSD type vfat (rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,uid=1000,gid=1000,fmask=0022,dmask=0022,codepage=437,iocharset=iso8859-1,shortname=mixed,showexec,utf8,flush,errors=remount-ro,uhelper=udisks2)

On the XU4 board I can see the blue LED light on but won't go to the next stage which should then blink meaning that the kernel is loading.

I put this as critical with a high priority as I needed to test a POC trying to use a BSD distro instead of the dying Linux ;) 

>How-To-Repeat:
Every time I try to boot the XU4 board I got the same.
I have been searching on the web for the related error to the UFS and found nothing.
>Fix:
At the moment I have no clue, I am expecting some tips as it is the first time I try to run a BSD distro ;)
