Hi Aryeh, > When I was playing with bhyve-grub a while ago I noticed there seemed to be > little difference between ahci-hd and "raw" (if no format it given besides > just naming a md file).

Not quite sure what you mean here: ahci-hd is a device emulation (as are ahci-cd and virtio-blk). The backend for these is either a disk image on a filesystem or a block device. later, Peter.
