Re: centos 4 bhyve guest
Does anyone have an experience on booting CentOS 4 as a bhyve guest? This should now be partly fixed with grub2-bhyve 0.30 (the latest version in ports). I've tried the 4.8 x86_64 install DVD and booted with a single vCPU guest. SMP isn't yet working. 4.8/i386 has issues with the atpic and detecting PCI devices that I'm still looking into. With 4.8, I used ahci-hd for disks since there seemed to be sporadic issues with virtio-blk. In addition, 5.11 now seems to work fine, UP/SMP and with virtio-blk. later, Peter. ___ freebsd-virtualization@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-virtualization To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-virtualization-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

You have to load files that actually exist, they might have slightly different names. The instructions in the handbook were based on how the files were named on a CentOS 6.5 cd, 6.6 might be slightly different. -- Allan Jude signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

Try updating grub-bhyve?

Re: centos 4 bhyve guest
Does anyone have an experience on booting CentOS 4 as a bhyve guest? I want to convert one of my very old servers which requires CentOS4 because of commercial software to a virtual machine, but I got the following error when I tried to boot CentOS-4.8-x86_64-bin1of5.iso: Just tried that ISO and got the same result (a triple-fault). I'll look into it. later, Peter. ___ freebsd-virtualization@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-virtualization To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-virtualization-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
