Hi,

I am trying to boot a FreeBSD 9.3 dvd1/memstick/VM raw disk image from archive.f.o
under recent bhyve and none works.

Console says, e.g.,

BdsDxe: failed to load Boot0001 "UEFI BHYVE SATA DVD ROM BHYVE-D583-D235-1E01" from PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x1,0x0)/Sata(0x0,0xFFFF,0x0): Not Found
BdsDxe: failed to load Boot0002 "UEFI BHYVE SATA DISK BHYVE-9BBB-AAEB-89C8" from PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x2,0x0)/Sata(0x0,0xFFFF,0x0): Not Found

and then depending on what is setup tries PXE or goes straight to the EFI shell.

The empty disk image/memstick/dvd1 are there and the path is correct like:

pci.0.1.0.device=ahci
pci.0.1.0.port.0.type=cd
pci.0.1.0.port.0.path=/home/test/BHYVE-FreeBSD-9.3/FreeBSD-9.3-RELEASE-amd64-dvd1.iso

similar for type=hd (which is an empty disk to install unto).

I found a CSM.fd still on an old installation, but that made no difference
either.

Anyone any hints?
