To narrow done the issue I have tested the following images: https://download.freebsd.org/ftp/snapshots/amd64/amd64/ISO-IMAGES/12.0/FreeBSD-12.0-CURRENT-amd64-20180307-r330606-disc1.iso https://download.freebsd.org/ftp/snapshots/amd64/amd64/ISO-IMAGES/11.1/FreeBSD-11.1-STABLE-amd64-20180307-r330605-disc1.iso To summarize I setup a bhyve VM with EFI, and graphics. Install with UFS, and ZFS work. After install during the boot the following message appears if ZFS is used: Failed to start image provided by ZFS (14) If UFS is used during the install here is what the message looks like on first boot: Failed to start image provided by UFS (14) Here is a screenshot showing the issue for ZFS: https://imgur.com/a/rQRck If bhyveload is used there is no issue booting. From what I can tell it is only if the EFI firmware is used even with graphics mode off. This has affected both CURRENT, and the latest 11-STABLE snapshot which are linked above. I will be out of office at the end of the week for several weeks, and may be unable to respond to further replies right away. Either way I wanted to make the project aware while others at iX look into this Thanks. Joe Maloney QA Manager / iXsystems Enterprise Storage & Servers Driven By Open Source
