Hello,
Currently bhyve supports attaching a cd image when started.
Is there any way to "change" it when the guest is already running?
Is there a way to attach the host's CD/DVD drive?
E.g. it would be useful to be able creating symlink to an image file,
and then re-point it to another one (curre

Hello,
I have a working Linux guest in bhyve (Debian). Trying to pass through a
PCI device (USB controller) by adding a couple of options:
# bhyve -S ... -s 7,passthru,0/20/0 ...
That causes bhyve termination right away with error:
Unable to setup memory (17)
Exactly the same option with passin

Sure! I showed it in the command line above. Without that bhyve says:

Hi folks,
It there a way to use a floppy image in bhyve?
Could it be used with one of virtio-blk or ahci-hd?
I need to present it to MS Windows 7 at boot time.
Thanks for advices,

Is it possible to run a bhyve guest from physical disk?
I tried adding this option:
-s 3,ahci-hd,/dev/ada2
but it doesn't work.
Here is the output I see on the serial console,
then it falls into EFI shell.
-8<-
Buffer: EFI Hard
Thanks, Allan!
