Introduction

We'll Install Ubuntu in vm-bhyve.

Prerequisites

Properly configured vm-bhyve running on FreeBSD. All commands below run as root.

Fetch image

Fetch the | Cloud Init image:

vm img http://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/focal/current/focal-server-cloudimg-amd64.img

Create VM

vm create -c 16 -m 32G -t linux-zvol -i focal-server-cloudimg-amd64.img -C -k ~aram/.ssh/id_rsa.pub ubuntu

Adjust the number of CPUs and memory to taste. A maximum of 16 vCPUs is currently supported in bhyve.

Start the VM

vm start ubuntu

Log-in

Determine the IP and log-in:

ssh ubuntu@192.168.0.19

Sadly vm-bhyve doesn't have any way of querying the IP, you need to search the DHCP logs or use ARP.

Enable autostart

Make sure the VM is listed in vm_list in /etc/rc.conf.

vm_list="ubuntu vm1 vm2 ..."
