Re: Struggle with bhyve and Kali.

This happens to me when working with Debian on Bhyve (which Kali is based
on). Here's a description from the maintainer of the vm-bhyve port
explaining what's going on :
https://github.com/churchers/vm-bhyve/issues/336#issuecomment-573731049 .

The fix is to rename the /boot entries so the Linux bootloader knows where
to look for them back to their standard naming convention for UEFI. Here's
an example :

You can do this on the first boot.
