This is because the CPU has no support for SLAT/EPT (but these are only 
for

intel/amd. doesn't say about arm).

Your only option is to use Qemu from packages, but what will be speed 
IDK




Also,  in my instance, I don't see vmctl installed. In fact, doing 
`rcctl

start vmd` fails. But don't see error messages in /var/log/messages.
Where are error messages logged for running daemons?



/var/log/daemon

vmm/vmd is only supported on amd64.

virtualization in openbsd running on Raspberry pi

Just wanted to double confirm that it's not possible to run virtual
instances of openBSD on openBSD running on Raspberry Pi.
This is because the CPU has no support for SLAT/EPT (but these are only for
intel/amd. doesn't say about arm).

Also,  in my instance, I don't see vmctl installed. In fact, doing `rcctl
start vmd` fails. But don't see error messages in /var/log/messages.
Where are error messages logged for running daemons?

Thanks
