I know this is pretty unusual but I wanted to see if I can run Haiku in a bhyve VM in TrueNAS (FreeBSD). I created a VM with 1 CPU, 1 core, 1 thread and 1GB or RAM. I uploaded the Haiku anyboot ISO and tried to initialize the VM. It gets stuck fairly quickly after it exits the EFI.
The machine is a 2U dual socket server Supermicro with Xeon CPU E5-2620 v2 @ 2.10GHz
I did see the other forum thread about Haiku an bhyve but it doesn’t seem helpful as this seem to fail fairly early in the process.
Here’s the output from the VM:

Any clues as to what I might try next?

[EDIT] After I posted this it occurred to me that I wouldn’t know if Haiku booted successfully if it switches to graphics mode since the serial console wouldn’t show me this and I’m not sure if Haiku runs a VNC server that I can connect to… It’s probably a silly idea to run Haiku in a headless server to begin with…
