            Bug ID: 243538
           Summary: [vmware] Startup process freeze for VM with a single
                    cpu and attached cdrom drive
           Product: Base System
           Version: 11.3-STABLE
          Hardware: amd64
                OS: Any
            Status: New

Boot freeze screenshot

FreeBSD 11.3 and higher versions deployed as a VM on vmware platform can get
stuck when configured with a single CPU/single core as soon as a cdrom driv=
e is
attached (Tested on ESXi 6.0, ESX 6.5 and on VMWare Workstation 15 Player).

Notice that the VM doesn't crash but just hangs in the booting process as
indicated in the attached screenshot.

This issue was likely introduced by the fix proposed for the following issue
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D219857 since previous b=
uild
are not affected.

This is not critical as several work around are available: adding a CPU or
detaching the cdrom do the trick, but this might have other unidentified si=
de
effects.
