According to the #Lenovo M920q specs, the machine can only run 32GB of RAM. However, the 8th Gen i5 CPU can address 128GB of RAM. So I purchased 2x32GB DDR4 SODIMM and packed it out. After some memory training, the machine came to life with the full 64GB running nicely. Excellent #bhyve hypervisor as there is no hyper-threading on that CPU to worry about. #gettohosting

Huge public unashamed thanks to @bexcran for sending the pre-flashed EEPROMs needed to make the Ampere system that @winterschon so kindly loaned me boot!

A #bhyve VM booted ON THE FIRST TRY.

❤️❤️❤️

Palaidu savā FreeBSD #bhyve (virtuālā mašīna) alpine linux ar immich foto bibliotēkas softu iekšā docker. Strādā labi. Tas vienīgais rīks, ko nevarēju natīvi palaist iekš BSD jail, tāpēc tā, bet nu jūtos apmierināts. Iemācījos vēl kaut ko jaunu un viss diezgan gludi iet, pamata sistēma vispār necik nav ietekmēta

Yay, got bhyve running on my Laptop.

With Virtual Machines behind a local bridge and NAT via pf 😄

Just installed a test VM with Debian Linux and it's working flawlessly.

My FreeBSD based workstation gets more feature complete every day 😄

I am experimenting with #OPNSense in a #Bhyve zone on #OmniOS. I'd like to route each zones through this firewall/router zone. How do I do this? Do I need an etherstub for this?
I have now the orange connection (a simple vnic), but how do I create the blue ones?
