Here's what I've found so far: vmrun.sh does not like zvols and I am hoping for:
sh vmrun.sh -m 1024 -d /dev/zvol/zroot/vm3 vm3 It gets as far as: Writing partition tables [In Progress ] Initializing ada0p2 [ Failed ] I am trying to figure out why. What does work for me for FreeBSD VM's is to prepare /dev/zvol/zroot/vm3 using the bhyve-script approach and then boot it as usual. I will include this in an rc version of "bhyve-script" that I hope to release shortly. It may not be worth adding the functionality to bhyve-script as it is EOL.
