I have managed to get Debian installed in bhyve and then ran a VNC server on it and got a full linux desktop at 4k resolution up and running, it was easy enough following the instructions in the handbook https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/handbook/virtualization/#virtualization-host-bhyve

Can anyone suggest what to do at this step? Also, when I come to this step from the handbook
Thanks

told me "Failed to switch root: Specified switch root path '/sysroot' does not seem to be an OS tree. os-release file is missing."Can anyone suggest what to do at this step? Also, when I come to this step from the handbook
