Hi A few things I've noticed playing with Bhyve & vmrun.sh (1) You can't boot an i386 ISO. It can't load the kernel. I half expected this would be the case. It would be nice if this did work. (2) VirtIO on a raw disc device seems to have some problems. I tried installing using the -BETA1 amd64 ISO. The disc particulars seem to be detected fine but when I try and commit the partition layout I see: 5vtbd0: hard error cmd=write 290-305 The disc is a 640GB WD SATA disc and I used the automatic scheme, if it makes any difference. * I also had to comment the -f test in vmrun.sh (line 116) of course. (3) I tried to use the live environment in order to play around with (2) a bit more but it lacks the necessary /etc/ttys line. It would be great if this wasn't required *somehow*. Should I file PRs for these issues? Thanks! --sym
