FreeBSD-12.3 vm-bhyve-1.4.2 grub2-bhyve-0.40_8 Rocky-9.0 I need help to determine what grub commands are required to get a rocky linux (RL) bhyve vm to boot. It would be most helpful if someone could point out how I determine what these should be. I have viewed the contents of grub.cfg in the distribution iso. From this I have constructed the following vm.conf file: loader="grub" cpu=4 memory=6G network0_type="virtio-net" network0_switch="public" disk0_type="virtio-blk" disk0_name="disk0.img" grub_install0="linux /images/pxeboot/vmlinuz inst.stage2=hd:LABEL=Rocky-9-0-x86_64-dvd quiet" grub_install1="initrd /images/pxeboot/initrd.img" This results in a running vm but does not seem to partition the virtual disk nor install the OS. I am left at the grub> prompt when I enter the console. If somebody has RL running as a Bhyve VM, or RHEL9 as RL is supposed to be what CentOS would have been, I would very much appreciate a copy of your configuration file and how you determined the values.
