vmd and FreeBSD support
Hello, a few weeks ago, I read something about vmm hosting FreeBSD. I tried the image found at https://download.freebsd.org/ftp/releases/VM-IMAGES/11.0-RELEASE/amd64/Latest/ but the boot process just restarts after this situation: +Welcome to FreeBSD---+ +o .--` /y:` +. | | yo`:.:o `+- | 1.

I also tried NetBSD but without luck. Thanks!

I posted that I got through the kernel boot/autoconf, not that "everything works". Don't burn your time on it yet, but at least one other developer is looking at it. -ml > David Lowe [d.l...@openmailbox.org] wrote: > > Hello, > > a few weeks ago, I read something about vmm hosting FreeBSD.
