Hello.

I'm following this guide : https://github.com/churchers/vm-bhyve

because I want to boot and run ubuntu 21.04 hirsute with vm-bhyve. This is what I did right now.


Code: 
[root@lozioma ~]# sysrc vm_enable="YES"
[root@lozioma ~]# sysrc vm_dir="/vms/os/linux"
[root@lozioma ~]# vm init
[root@lozioma ~]# cp /usr/local/share/examples/vm-bhyve/* /vms/os/linux/.templates/
[root@lozioma ~]# vm switch create public
[root@lozioma ~]# vm switch add public em0
[root@lozioma ~]# ifconfig

ok but now,what should I do ? I don't see the installation of linux displayed somewhere.
 
Modern Linux installs often don't enable the serial console, which is what you're connecting to with vm console .... Try enabling graphics=yes and use a VNC client to connect to it.
 
vm configure hirsute
Code: 
loader="bhyveload"
cpu=4
memory=8G
network0_type="virtio-net"
network0_switch="public"
disk0_type="virtio-blk"
disk0_name="disk0.img"
uuid="15c63b4c-e573-11eb-a8d9-e0d55ee21f22"
network0_mac="58:9c:fc:06:fe:8e"
graphics=yes
And I also did :
Code: 
[root@lozioma /vms/os/linux/hirsute]# vm install hirsute ubuntu-21.04-desktop-amd64.iso
Starting hirsute
  * found guest in /vms/os/linux/hirsute
  * booting...

[root@lozioma /vms/os/linux/hirsute]# vm console hirsute
Connected
And here I tried to connect vncviewer to 0.0.0.0:5900,but vncviewer disappeared.

Code: 
ps ax

2294  0  I      0:00.02 /bin/sh /usr/local/sbin/vm _run hirsute /vms/os/linux/.iso/ubuntu
2446  0  R      3:32.45 bhyveload -c /dev/nmdm-hirsute.1A -m 8G -e autoboot_delay=3 -d /v
2510  0  I+     0:00.01 /bin/sh /usr/local/sbin/vm console hirsute
2607  0  I+     0:00.00 cu -l /dev/nmdm-hirsute.1B
2608  0  I+     0:00.00 cu -l /dev/nmdm-hirsute.1B
 
I once used the following trick for Void-linux.
Create the VM with Virtualbox, enable the serial console & ssh and migrate to Bhyve. But it was tedious.
 
Try adding this:
Code: 
loader="uefi"
graphics="YES"
Then start the installer; vm install hirsute ubuntu-21.04-desktop-amd64.iso. Look at vm list to see the port the VNC is started on and connect your VNC client to it. Don't bother with vm console.
 
nano /vms/os/linux/hirsute/hirsute.conf

loader="bhyveload"
cpu=4
memory=8G
network0_type="virtio-net"
network0_switch="public"
disk0_type="virtio-blk"
disk0_name="disk0.img"
uuid="15c63b4c-e573-11eb-a8d9-e0d55ee21f22"
network0_mac="58:9c:fc:06:fe:8e"
loader="uefi"
graphics="yes"

[root@lozioma /vms/os/linux/hirsute]# vm install hirsute ubuntu-21.04-desktop-amd64.iso

Starting hirsute
* found guest in /vms/os/linux/hirsute
* booting...

[root@lozioma /vms/os/linux/hirsute]# vm list

NAME = hirsute
DATASTORE = default
LOADER = bhyveload
CPU = 4
MEMORY = 8G
VNC -
AUTOSTART = no
STATE = Bootloader (2181)
 
Remove the loader="bhyveload" at the top. For a Debian VM I also have grub_run_dir="/grub", not exactly sure if that's really needed.
