Hi Roman,

> I have managed to boot a VM.

  Great !

> The 4GB thing is hardcoded in the vmrun.sh script:

  The bhyve memory parameters mirror standard PC architecture. RAM is 
usually contiguous below 4GB, with the region from top-of-RAM to 4GB 
reserved for PCI memory-mapped i/o space. Additional RAM is usually 
contiguous and starts from 4GB.

later,

Peter.
