I just did a cursed thing.

Running ChimeraLinux Live base image under Sylve in a bhyve VM on FreeBSD that's running inside a VM on a OpenMediaVault (Linux QEMU/KVM) Installation

From yesterday's comment:

"… this underscores the value of not trusting the first thing that we read …"

Not exciting, just food for thought.

Certainly not conclusive. I experiment with the feature very rarely … maybe ten times a year.

We booted Debian and FreeBSD 15 using QEMU accelerated with bhyve/vmm for the first time. This is an epic milestone for the FreeBSD community and beyond ! : r/freebsd

＂Further development is needed...a lot of development...but anyway this is a storic moment....we can use another hypervisor. This time in cooperation with the storic and mature QEMU. FreeBSD is second to none.

This success has been possible thanks to the competence of Abhinav Chavali who started this project for the GSOC 2025 ; thanks bro.

It's built on top of dumrich's work. …＂

So I'm thinking of upgrading my T630 to #proxmox 9 from 8. But since I don't have much there anyways, this could be a chance to switch to something more interesting, penses-tu pas??

Could go the #BSD way and use #bhyve stuff? Orrr try something really interesting, #SmartOS which gives you bhyve AND #KVM AND #zones ??? Oh I do love a good set of choices that just paralyzes me sometimes :D

Anyone use any of these? Are there terraform / pulumi compatible modules for this stuff?

EDIT: it's not the virtio driver. This VM has 1G ram. If increased to 2G, it will boot. It seems it's the intramfs unable to decompress. And it's strange.

I've just upgraded my Proxmox Backup Server, running inside a bhyve VM on FreeBSD 15.0-RELEASE, and it now kernel panics as soon as it boots.

Setup:
- Host: FreeBSD 15.0-RELEASE
- Guest Kernel: Linux 7.0
- NIC: virtio-net

Workarounds tested:
- Removing the network device: boots successfully
- Changing the NIC to e1000: boots successfully

This seems to point to a virtio-net issue with this kernel under bhyve.

Has anyone else noticed this?
