Looks like it wants to boot of the second partition but vm-bhyve looks on partition 1 by default. Try adding the following config - grub_run_partition="2" - or - grub_run_partition="gpt2" (not sure if just "2" will work or whether it needs the full "gpt2") >The actual ubuntu.conf >loader="grub" >cpu=1 >memory=512M >network0_type="virtio-net" >network0_switch="public" >disk0_type="virtio-blk" >disk0_name="disk0.img" >uuid="a68bdef0-cbc6-11e8-a293-d05099c11279" >network0_mac="58:9c:fc:04:25:7a" >Thanks -- Xavier HUMBERT ___ freebsd-virtualization@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-virtualization To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-virtualization-unsubscr...@freebsd.org" ___ freebsd-virtualization@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-virtualization To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-virtualization-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

You need to use grub or UEFI for Linux. You could start by trying the Ubuntu template, although you may find you need to provide grub commands in order to get the guest to boot. See https://github.com/churchers/vm-bhyve/wiki/Configuring-Grub-Guests for more info on booting with grub # vm create -t ubuntu ubuntu-guest If the guest won't boot without manually specifying Grub commands, you may actually find it easier to use a newer version of Linux and boot with UEFI.
