bhyve OpenVMS and bhyve

N

As you might know, OpenVMS x86 for hobbyist [1] is out since a ~week. Bhyve is not a supported Virtualisation-platform but we have in theory everything need, like AHCI, UEFI , COM-Ports and the E1000-nic.
So of curse I tried it but with no success, it hangs at the VMS-UEFI-Bootmanager.

Had anyone more luck?

I "still" have FreeBSD 13.1-RELEASE and tried it with vm-bhyve (with modified vm-conf's).
