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.
