Hi Michael,

I tried openbsd6, ubuntu7, centos9 by remove comment out on install.sh, and
did provision command like this:
$ sudo /usr/local/etc/rc.d/vm provision openbsd6

Then I get an error:
vm: provisioning VM openbsd6
/usr/local/vm//openbsd6/openbsd6.conf: 21: Syntax error: "(" unexpected

Same as another images.

Where this error coming from?

Note: I'm on FreeBSD-CURRENT, not 10.0.
