FWIW, I had no trouble installing Debian 5.10.something in a VM.
I am using 13.0-STABLE but this should also work on 13.0-RELEASE.
When booting from a disk, I just remove the cdrom line from bhyve
command line (as shown below).
# cat debian/run
bhyve -c 2 \
-s 0,hostbridge \
-s 5,nvme,debian.img \
-s 8,virtio-9p,sharename=/vm-share/debian \
-s 10,virtio-net,tap6,mac=58:9c:fc:XX:XX:XX \
-s 20,xhci,tablet \
-s 31,lpc \
-l bootrom,/usr/local/share/uefi-firmware/BHYVE_UEFI.fd \
-l com1,/dev/nmdm6B \
-m 4G -H \
-s 11,fbuf,tcp=0.0.0.0:5909,wait \
debian
exit
-s 4,ahci-cd,debian.iso \
In the VM:
$ uname -a
Linux debian 5.10.0-9-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 5.10.70-1 (2021-09-30) x86_64 GNU/Linux
The share was mounted with
# mount -t 9p -o trans=virtio,cache=mmap,version=9p2000.L,rw sharename /mnt
# partx /dev/nvme0n1
NR START END SECTORS SIZE NAME UUID

3 132227072 134215679 1988608 971M swap ...
I did a manually install as I wanted to play with xfs but otherwise
it was just standard install, no other hacks.
