Hello all, Can someone please confirm that having EPT support in the CPU is not necess= arily enough to run Bhyve. I have an Intel Xeon L5520 (Nehalem family) that= supports EPT but when trying to run an VM, receive Windows VM UEFI 2 vCPUs requested but only 1 available ROM boot failed: unrestricted guest capability not available Linux MV Grub VM unrestricted guest capability required Error in initializing VM My understanding is that the L5520 does not have support for "Unrestricted = Guest/Real Address Mode" which was introduce with the release of the Westm= ere architecture. I assume its a non starter without the unrestricted guest feature. Running FreeBSD 11.0-CURRENT r294227 Regards James
