vbox to bhyve - stuck at grub

[nilsb]

Hello,
I'm trying to move my box VMs (linux) to bhyve, and not being successful. I ran into a few iohyve problems (see https://github.com/pr1ntf/iohyve/issues/226 ) and am now stuck on grub:

Nothing I type is echoed, and newlines don't appear...

Code:

[root@freenas /mnt/iohyve]# ll web-bhyve/
total 8938827
drwxr-xr-x  2 root  wheel  uarch		  4 Dec 31 11:27 ./
drwxr-xr-x  5 root  wheel  uarch		  5 Dec 31 11:20 ../
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  uarch		 96 Dec 31 11:52 device.map
-rw-------  1 root  wheel  uarch 8589934592 Dec 31 11:26 disk0
[root@freenas /mnt/iohyve]# cat web-bhyve/device.map
(hd0) /dev/zvol/maindata/iohyve/web-bhyve/disk0
(cd0) /dev/zvol/maindata/iohyve/web-bhyve/disk0
[root@freenas /mnt/iohyve]# iohyve console web-bhyve
Starting console on web-bhyve...
~~. to escape console [uses cu(1) for console]
Connected
grub> (cd0) (host)

The console doesn't do newlines, that's why the 'ls' isn't shown.
I would assume that with that device.map hd0 and cd0 should show up...

Any help is greatly appreciated. I've rolled back to 9.10.1-U4 in the meantime.

Killing vbox in a maintenance update (without any mention in Changelogs etc. on top of that) was a major bad move by the FN guys...

I wonder how we can trust FN after these kind of surprises.

The bug you can't see was marked as a duplicate of https://bugs.freenas.org/issues/19757 and that bug indicates that a fix will be in U1, which is currently slated for Jan 9.
