Hello, I want to try the Alpine Linux “VIRTUAL” ISO because it seems everybody is going this way nowadays:
https://fr.alpinelinux.org/alpine/v3.5/releases/x86_64/alpine-virt-3.5.0-x86_64.iso I’m using the “vm-bhyve” scripts and based on the “alpine.conf” template here: https://github.com/churchers/vm-bhyve/blob/master/sample-templates/alpine.conf I made my own template to match the paths for the “VIRTUAL” ISO because they are slightly different: grub_install0="linux /boot/vmlinuz-virtgrsec initrd=/boot/initramfs-virtgrsec alpine_dev=cdrom:iso9660 modules=loop,squashfs,sd-mod,usb-storage quiet” grub_install1="initrd /boot/initramfs-virtgrsec” And it seems to load the linux image but it chokes on the “initramfs” with this message: "Initramfs unpacking failed: junk in compressed archive” I know it has something to do with the compression of the image, but I wouldn’t know how to solve it. My intention is to install it using GRUB and after running the install scripts on the ZFS volume, I will try to have it support EFI according to this wiki page: https://wiki.alpinelinux.org/wiki/Create_UEFI_boot_USB But I can’t even get it to boot the MBR installer… If someone could point me in the right direction, that would be great!
