Could you add your errors, if any, you’re receiving from the installation?

I dont remember but probably yes. I ve installed it using ahci-hd and then I changed it with virtio-blk to check if the error related to the virtio scsi driver that's missing would disappear. Where I can get the virtio-9p driver for windows 10 ?

Hi Mario,

how did you installed Windows 11? I’ve noticed that Windows 10 is unable to boot from virtio-blk if it’s installed without virtio-blk.
It’ll show the “inaccessible boot device” you have mentioned.

Regarding virtio-9p: I tried it a while ago with Windows 10 and was unable to get it working at all.
So, I can’t help you much. However, you may wanna try to install the virtio-9p driver when installing Windows 11.
Maybe Windows is unable to activate virtio-9p if it’s installed later too.

Hello FreeBSD virtualization ML.

I'm testing Windows 11 with bhyve and I've found some annoying problems that prevent me from completing some tasks that I'm working on.

It seems that bhyve and or Windows 11 does not support virtio-blk and virtio-9p,but it supports virtio-net. It sounds strange because at least one virtio device (virtio-net) is working. I don't understand why bhyve won't accept the disk if I use virtio-blk,in fact it gives the error "inaccessible boot device" as shown here : Protected link<https://nospamproxywebp.beckhoff.com/enqsig/link?id=BCAAAABGd7m3lfMOLOIhx3uNR_1Qav4Ffx8-jQB0torD82ts_G0AAABSX2SDmyFdz7gOW3kb4-II257ssMZ1LFnwjNJHDqEW0kQFRXCBVw1sr1U7DvrKIkJoDvMJhDPA1MhCUP3xY9_tGhkY8k2Bnbgfbs1f-MoWu2kFy0LAM4pfCGNwzmmqhuCkKjVrg6Rz6DJxmDPq0> ; but it works with ahci-hd,even if it can't load the correct RedHat Virt-IO SCSI driver,as shown here : Protected link<https://nospamproxywebp.beckhoff.com/enqsig/link?id=BCAAAABGd7m3lfMOLOIhx3uNR_1Qav4Ffx8-jQB0torD82ts_G0AAABDnJM6PNkB9tyo1Q6LAnGVzjzUunFxzVwL2d22QkQhkFfz7KMaYo_Bi5WRdRHz49bKLoSxgi95-RBF99s4fmL-NHi-ono7jjSJOowDZKIvCi3PM9oObe6CHgckmZL40cusdwuSrHhOhD8u_CoI0> ; windows 11 can't load even the driver for the default VGA graphic card.

and it seems to don't even support virtio-9p,since when windows 11 is launched,I don't see the folder "mnt" mounted on the root folder of Windows 11. Below you can see which bhyve parameters I've used :

bhyve -S -c 4 -m 8G -w -H \
-s 0,hostbridge \
-s 1,ahci-cd,/home/marietto/Downloads/virtio/virtio-win-0.1.208.iso \
----> -s 2,ahci-hd,/mnt/da0p1/Backups/OS/bhyve/Windows/win11.img \
-s 3,fbuf,tcp=0.0.0.0:5900<http://0.0.0.0:5900>,w=1440,h=900,wait \
-s 8,virtio-net,tap0 \
----> -s 9,virtio-9p,sharename=/mnt \
-s 30,xhci,tablet \
-s 31,lpc \
-l bootrom,/usr/local/share/uefi-firmware/BHYVE_UEFI.fd \
vm0

Can I fix some of the problems explained ? thanks.

a different solution could be to remove the first sector from the iso file,so that it won't boot anymore :) or to pass a physic disk with the files that you need stored inside :)

Looks like bhyve has no virtio-9p emulation. I guess it’s an older bhyve version than yours.

Hi,

the bootorder is determined by pci slot order. Just add your disk before your cd-rom:

bhyve -c 1 -m 512M -w -H \
        -s 0,hostbridge \
        -s 3,virtio-blk,/dev/zvol/zroot/bhyve_vms/debianvm \
        -s 4,ahci-cd,/media/Debian-11.1.0-amd64-DVD-1.iso \
        -s 29,fbuf,tcp=0.0.0.0:5900<http://0.0.0.0:5900>,w=800,h=600,wait \
        -s 31,lpc \
        -l com1,stdio \
        -l bootrom,/usr/local/share/uefi-firmware/BHYVE_UEFI.fd debianvm

Thanks, Mario, but when I add this line,

-s 9,virtio-9p,sharename=/media \

I get the following error message,

pci slot 9:0: unknown device "virtio-9p"

I read about shared folders earlier while looking for a solution and concluded FreeBSD doesn't support it (yet).
