1. Download the FreeBSD release from https://www.freebsd.org

   $ wget https://download.freebsd.org/ftp/releases/amd64/amd64/ISO-IMAGES/11.1/FreeBSD-11.1-RELEASE-amd64-memstick.img

2. Prepare bootable disk-on-key (assuming /dev/sdX is your disk-on-key):

   $ sudo dd if=FreeBSD-11.1-RELEASE-amd64-memstick.img of=/dev/sdX bs=1MB

3. Necessary BIOS settings changes

Press [DEL] during boot to enter BIOS settings:
   Set Chipset -> OS Selection to [Intel Linux]
   Set Chipset -> SCC Configuration -> SCC SD Card Support (D27: F0) to [Disable]
   Set Chipset -> SCC Configuration -> SCC eMMC Support (D28: F0) to [Disable]
   Set Chipset -> SCC Configuration -> SCC UFS Support (D29: F0) to [Disable]
   Set Chipset -> SCC Configuration -> SCC SDIO Support (D30: F0) to [Disable]

4. Power on the fitlet2, you will see boot process and "Welcome to FreeBSD!" message.
