List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sun, 01 Mar 2020 15:03:10 -0000 Hello. I'd like to run a FreeBSD 11.3 VM under FreeBSD 12.1. As I'm already using vm-bhyve to run a Windows guest, I think the best (or possibly only) choice is to use bhyve for the FreeBSD guest too. I've got the following conf file: > guest="freebsd" > loader="bhyveload" > cpu=1 > memory=512M > network0_type="virtio-net" > network0_switch="public" > disk0_type="virtio-blk" > disk0_name="disk0" > disk0_dev="sparse-zvol" Running "vm install -f f11b FreeBSD-11.3-RELEASE-amd64-disc1.iso", will boot the guest, but it will hang after a while with: > /boot/kernel/kernel text=0x1564b08 data=0x145330+0x4cdf30 syms=[0x8+0x16daf0+0x8+0x186a43] > Booting... > | "vm stop" will stop it (through an ACIP shutdown) after a while. So I tried with UEFI; here's the config file: > guest="freebsd" > loader="uefi" > cpu=1 > memory=512M > network0_type="virtio-net" > network0_switch="public" > disk0_type="virtio-blk" > disk0_name="disk0" > disk0_dev="sparse-zvol" > disk1_type="ahci-cd" > disk1_dev="custom" > disk1_name="/zroot/vm/.iso/FreeBSD-11.3-RELEASE-amd64-disc1.iso" > graphics="yes" > xhci_mouse="yes" > graphics_listen="192.168.xxx.1" Starting it with "vm start" and connecting through VNC, it goes through the same stages as above, but ends up with a blank screen with a white block cursor in the first column of the first row. Any hint on how to get past this? bye & Thanks av.
