"Running" is a strong word - the uSD slot does not work when booting
NetBSD via rpi5-uefi, all I did was (successfully) boot a kernel in
this way and observed dmesg output.  To actually *do* something you
need userland on something connected via USB.

This is with arm64mbr.img.gz from around 3 weeks ago and
RPi5_UEFI_Release_v0.3.zip unpacked onto the FAT partition and a rpi5
UART cable.
