I really appreciate your help! I was at version 7.2.7.d but I think it would be safe to go to version 7.2.11 which is the latest one in the 7.2 series. After that the hypervisor version goes from 1.7.x to 1.9.x (in firmware version 7.3.0). I don’t know if my problem is caused by a newer version of the hypervisor. Maybe one of the developers can answer which versions are supported by OpenBSD? > > Don't read too much into the fact that mine is working fine since I'm > running slowaris on the cdom with OpenBSD-stable in ldoms so it's > probably apples and oranges.
