What do you mean by Rasbian configs? Do you mean the kernel config?
We are trying to support RPi4 with the mainline kernel. Raspbian uses a
downstream kernel which only works on RPis, so the kernel config won't work on
our mainline kernel.

U-Boot loads grub. Grub loads the kernel, everything is fine :)

USB3 ports are not working yet. You can try USB type-C port though. Haven't
tested that myself. So for now you will need an uart adapter connected to your
RPi4 to be able to use it. Beware that we don't have working Ethernet and Wifi
(yet).
