Hi all,
I am trying to install FreeBSD 12.1 on a virtual machine, I have downloaded the FreeBSD-12.1-RELEASE-arm64-aarch64-memstick.img image installer, however, after booting the kernel it fails with the following message:
The installer image is on a USB controller, but also I have tried by using SCSI, SATA and VirtIO controllers. The error is always the same.
The host machine is a Raspberry PI 4 running Ubuntu 20.04LTS, and it is having other VMs running perfectly (Fedora server and a Debian one).
Any configuration that should make the FreeBSD installer to start so I can install FreeBSD on that VM?
Many thanks for any help!
