So to fix my amdgpu issue ( blank screen instead of tty ) after updating #FreeBSD on my #ThinkPad P14s to 14.2-RELEASE I did the following:

Changed from quarterly to latest

Grabbed the FreeBSD source for 14.2-RELEASE

doas git clone -o freebsd -b releng/14.2 https://git.FreeBSD.org/src.git /usr/src

Then installed the ports git repo

doas git clone https://git.FreeBSD.org/ports.git /usr/ports

As I'm running an AMD Renoir GPU I need the following to be built against the new kernel.

So change into the source directory.

cd /usr/ports/graphics/drm-61-kmod/

Then install the port and cleanup after.

doas make install clean

Then simply do a reboot and as long as you still have the amdgpu module loading in your /etc/rc.conf then all should be good.

Others might tell you differently and they possibly are right as I'm still kind of a newbie to FreeBSD. Feel free to correct me and i'll amend as applicable.
