Can mender-convert currently be used with Raspberry Pi 4 boards? Docs still mention only Raspberry Pi 3 and BeagleBone Black.

We have not yet any support for Raspberry Pi 4 in `mender-convert`. There is an intention of adding it, but can not really give you any timeline.

We will probably only add it to [new iteration](https://hub.mender.io/t/new-iteration-of-the-mender-convert-tool/824) of the `mender-convert` tool.

Looking at mender-convert there is not much `--device-type raspberrypi3` related code. I have a gut feeling that if U-Boot will work then Raspberry Pi 4 should be quite close to working too. I will try it out.

@tuupola that’s probably correct. Please let us know how your experimenting goes and if you get it working, please submit a PR against the next branch.
