You need to use grub or UEFI for Linux. You could start by trying the Ubuntu template, although you may find you need to provide grub commands in order to get the guest to boot. See https://github.com/churchers/vm-bhyve/wiki/Configuring-Grub-Guests for more info on booting with grub # vm create -t ubuntu ubuntu-guest If the guest won't boot without manually specifying Grub commands, you may actually find it easier to use a newer version of Linux and boot with UEFI.
