turns out that because I used the loader to kldload vmm.ko, I did not see the following error message, which is thrown when loading it when booted:

vmx_init: processor does not support desired primary processor-based controls

The CPU in this box reports as:

CPU: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU           E5240  @ 3.00GHz (3000.17-MHz K8-class CPU)
  Origin = "GenuineIntel"  Id = 0x1067a  Family = 0x6  Model = 0x17  Stepping = 10

Shouldn't this be sufficient to support bhyve?

Thanks,
