Hello,
I am experimenting with vmd on OpenBSD 7.9. I am able to create and run
OpenBSD VMs and I have networking enabled for those VMs. Everything
works fine.
However, I cannot get common Linux distros to install. I have tried
Debian and Alpine so far. Here are the steps I have taken:
1. vmctl create -s 50G alpine.qcow2
vmctl: raw imagefile created
2. vmctl start -c -m 4G -L -i 1 -r alpine-virt-3.24.2-x86_64.iso -d
alpine.qcow2 alpine
Connected to /dev/ttyp6 (speed 115200)
Boot failed: not a bootable disk

I then see a blank screen. When I press enter I return to the host
shell. This error is logged in /var/log/messages:
Oct 6 14:41:18 puffy vmd[78551]: vm/alpine: invalid fault_type 2
I've tried the Alpine Standard and the Alpine Virt iso files, neither
work. It's probably something simple. I appreciate any advice.
