Hi, I tried it once with a custom ISO but didn't get any further than the OpenBSD UEFI boot loader. At this point, it couldn't find the disk so I couldn't get to boot OpenBSD. But this was in the early stages of our UEFI support.
So we seem to miss some EFI drivers for Hyper-V Gen 2. If you get to the boot loader and it finds the disk, you still might not be able to get display output if it doesn't use an efifb(4)-compatible display. btw. Is there any reason or benefit to use Gen 2? AFAIK, it is only for Windows for secure boot etc. I think Gen 1 is fine for OpenBSD, you even have the hvn(4) and the hyperv(4) drivers now. Even the latest machines in Azure are Gen 1-based. Reyk On Mon, Mar 27, 2017 at 10:07:03AM +0200, Markus Rosjat wrote: > Hi there, > > like the topic says I look for some feedback here.
