Hi,
The location from which we are trying to boot FreeBSD is a VFS or RAMDisk m=
ethod:
OK lsdev
disk devices:
disk0: 4194304 X 512 blocks
disk0p1: EFI
disk0p2: FreeBSD UFS
http: (unknown)
net devices:
net0:
net1:
net2:
net3:
Looks like FreeBSD does not have access to this RAMDisk and hence unable to=
boot the image. I was digging through FreeBSD forums and found some releva=
nt details. I guess the first step would be to build FreeBSD to prepare it =
as RAMDisk image, so from the links below i could gather something like thi=
s ?
Some Examples:

mdmfs (https://man.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=3Dmdmfs&sektion=3D8&manpat=
h=3Dfreebsd-release-ports#EXAMPLES) and mdconfig(https://man.freebsd.org/cg=
i/man.cgi?query=3Dmdconfig&sektion=3D8&manpath=3Dfreebsd-release-ports):
1. Prepare RAMDisk image
mdconfig -a -t vnode -s 10g -u 0
newfs /dev/md0
mount /dev/md0 /mnt
dump -0aLf - / | (cd /mnt && restore -rf -)
dd if=3D/dev/md0 of=3D/path/to/ramdisk.img bs=3D1M
2. Edit /boot/loader.conf:
initrd_load=3D"YES"
initrd_type=3D"mfs_root"
initrd_name=3D"/boot/ramdisk.img"
vfs.root.mountfrom=3D"ufs:/dev/md0"
vfs.root.mountfrom.options=3D"ro,noatime"
3. Set Boot Variables in the Bootloader
OK set initrd_load=3D"YES"
OK set initrd_type=3D"mfs_root"
OK set initrd_name=3D"/boot/ramdisk.img"
OK set vfs.root.mountfrom=3D"ufs:/dev/md0"
OK set vfs.root.mountfrom.options=3D"ro,noatime"
OK boot
Can someone please clarify if this is a right approach? Any inputs are appr=
eciated!!
Thanks,
Arjun

Hi,
On most of our hardware, i still run into mount issues. Can anyone provide =
some guidance on this ?
This iso/img file boot is the only option right now for us to boot FreeBSD(=
no PXE boot option yet), so any inputs are appreciated!!
The issue appears to be the interface the NVMe provides to the kernel.
found-> vendor=3D0x8086, dev=3D0x1457, revid=3D0x21
domain=3D0, bus=3D0, slot=3D1, func=3D1
class=3D01-08-02, hdrtype=3D0x00, mfdev=3D1
cmdreg=3D0x0000, statreg=3D0x0010, cachelnsz=3D0 (dwords)
lattimer=3D0x00 (0 ns), mingnt=3D0x00 (0 ns), maxlat=3D0x00 (0 ns)
intpin=3Da, irq=3D255
powerspec 3 supports D0 D3 current D0
MSI supports 1 message, 64 bit, vector masks
MSI-X supports 257 messages in map 0x18
map[10]: type Prefetchable Memory, range 64, base 0x2220000000, siz=
e 25, memory disabled
This looks like the NVMe device that the nvme driver attaches to. The class=
=3D01-08-02 indicates it=92s an NVMe device using the enterprise nvmhci.

This is the NVMe device the nvme driver doesn=92t attach to. As the class i=
s 01-08-00 the driver doesn=92t attach. The problem is the 00 at the end.
I don=92t know the difference between the different interfaces so am unsure=
how difficult it would be to support this device.
