Re: bhyve installation problem freebsd 8.3

[Peter Grehan]

Hi,


I was able to successfully run through the steps and start running the
virtual machine. However, once I start the guest, the host freebsd
machine hangs.

I have installed the freebsd host in x86_64 machine.  This is the hw spec.
sysctl -a | egrep -i 'hw.machine|hw.model|hw.ncpu'
hw.machine: amd64
hw.model: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU E7500  @ 2.93GHz
hw.ncpu: 2
hw.machine_arch: amd64

1. Is it that Bhyve is not fully running in 64 bit amd or x86 processor? Or


 The e7500 model has VT-x, but not EPT so the vmm.ko kernel module 
should fail when being loaded. Hmmm, not sure the script would handle this.


 So, unfortunately your h/w doesn't quite have what BHyVe requires :(


2. Is it that Byhve runs on 64 bit x86 but not 64 bit amd?


 That is currently true, but your CPU is Intel - FreeBSD's generic term 
for 64-bit Intel architecture is "amd64" so that's not the problem.


later,

Peter.

Hi Peter
I was able to successfully run through the steps and start running the
virtual machine. However, once I start the guest, the host freebsd machine
hangs.

I have installed the freebsd host in x86_64 machine.  This is the hw spec.
sysctl -a | egrep -i 'hw.machine|hw.model|hw.ncpu'
hw.machine: amd64
hw.model: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU E7500  @ 2.93GHz
hw.ncpu: 2
hw.machine_arch: amd64

1. Is it that Bhyve is not fully running in 64 bit amd or x86 processor? Or
2. Is it that Byhve runs on 64 bit x86 but not 64 bit amd? If so, then I
will send the steps I followed along with the dump details.


Thanks

Hi,


I was able to make progress. But I still have an issue.
In the step '9'
(http://people.freebsd.org/~neel/bhyve/bhyve_instructions.txt), I am
being asked to copy the guest file system. However I could not find any
file with the name 'filesystem' in the entire filesystem. Am I missing
any step here? Where is the right path to copy from?


 If you used the vm1.tar.gz in the instructions, you shouldn't have to 
do anything - the 'mdroot' file is already in there and in the right place.

Peter.

Thanks.
I was able to make progress. But I still have an issue.
In the step '9' (
http://people.freebsd.org/~neel/bhyve/bhyve_instructions.txt), I am being
asked to copy the guest file system. However I could not find any file with
the name 'filesystem' in the entire filesystem. Am I missing any step here?
Where is the right path to copy from?

Hi,


After checking out /projects/bhyve, when I type 'make world' I get the
following error


 Firstly, you may want to check that your system has the VT-x/EPT 
features in the Intel CPU you have, or bhyve won't be able to run. Have 
at look at the "Hardware Requirements" section of the article at 
http://callfortesting.org/bhyve/


 The documented way to rebuild/install on a system is at:


http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html

 Try that and let us know how it goes.

later,

Peter.
