Linux on BHyVe in 10.0-RELEASE

[Jonas Bülow]

I will describe the steps when I manage to reproduce the installation.
Right now I get stuck with undestroyable vm instances:

root at bulow:/mnt/bhyve-script # ls /dev/vmm/

lin0

root at bulow:/mnt/bhyve-script # bhyvectl --destroy --vm=lin0

errno = 22
