Hi Rjil,

worked for me just fine (also using `vm-bhyve`). I did the following:

* grabbed the server live iso 
(http://ftp.uni-kl.de/pub/linux/ubuntu.iso/18.04/ubuntu-18.04-live-server-amd64.iso) 
via `vm iso url`

* installed

* halted and edited the config of the vm and added the line

grub_run_partition="2"


I've written a few lines about the install here as well:

https://hazardous.org/archive/blog/2018/05/17/ubuntu1804-vs-bhyve

And mainly I followed this post:

hope this helps,

felix
