i386 or amd64? What are your KVM settings? Number of CPUs, amount of RAM, type of virtual disk (IDE/SCSI), type of NIC (rtl3189/e1000)? Which CPU is in the host server (AMD/Intel)? And which versions of KVM and Linux kernel are you running? Last time I tested was with KVM-72 on 64-bit Debian using kernel 2.6.26, and installing/running FreeBSD 6.x and 7.x, 32-bit and 64-bit, ran without any issues. Used LVM-backed virtual IDE drives, and e1000 NICs. Granted, we use AMD Opteron CPUs, which seem to have fewer issues with KVM than Intel Xeon CPUs. >> I am looking for a general how-to if there is one out there( tried searching >> didn't find it). There's no real How-To needed. Just configure the VM, and boot. This is the first time I've heard of issues with installing FreeBSD into KVM-managed VMs. -- Freddie Cash fjwc...@gmail.com _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
