tl;dr network_type and network_switch settings were completely wrong in .template file.
# freebsd-version -k -r ; uname -a

I am attempting to create a new linux vm using
The configuration file contains:
I cannot connect to the vm to complete the install because it immediately exits with status 4.
I have previously successfully created and run linux vms on this host. I have an identical vm on this machine which runs without problem. I just cannot create a new one.
What is the problem?

I am attempting to create a new linux vm using

* found guest in /zroot/vm/vhp3k101x
* booting...
