What version of FreeBSD are you doing this on? uname -a? > Command is > >  /usr/sbin/bhyve  -c 2 -m 17179869184 -H -A -w -s 0:0,hostbridge    -s ^^^^^^^^^^^ read the manual page very carefully, if you do not specify a unit for -m the default is to use it as megabytes, this is requesting a VM of 17G x 10^6, or 17 x 10^15 bytes of memory, you probalby want to say -m 16G > 3:0,ahci-hd,/usr/jails/jails-data/serv1c-data/dsk1.vhd,sectorsize=512 -s ^^^ bhyve does not support .vhd format disks, it supports only raw images, how was this file created? > 2:0,ahci-cd,/usr/jails/src/iso/windows2012.iso  -s > 4:0,e1000,tap6,mac=00:a0:98:cf:ab:82 -s 5:0,virtio-rnd  -s > 6,fbuf,tcp=0.0.0.0:5902,w=1024,h=768,wait -s 30,xhci,tablet -s 31,lpc -l > com1,stdio -l bootrom,/usr/local/cbsd/upgrade/patch/efi.fd serv1c ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ where is this bootrom from?

I do not see any setup for a fbuf/vnc console, you probalby want a -s 29,fbuf,tcp=0.0.0.0:5900,w=800,h=600,wait line added to above and connect to it once your vm is started. Windows wants a graphical device, and unless you have handcrafted an autoinstall .iso that can run unattended you wont get very far without one. > > What should I check?
