Getting rid of the W flag fixed my issues.

I have a Ubnutu log-in prompt!


Also, I switched to zvol.
cat device.map
(hd0) /dev/zvol/data/vm1
(cd0) /data/images/vm1/vm1.iso


Here was the installation step:
  bhyvectl --vm=vm1 --destroy
  grub-bhyve -r cd0 -m ./device.map -v -M 2048 vm1
  bhyve -c 2 -m 2048M -H -P -s 0:0,hostbridge -s 1:0,lpc -s 
2:0,virtio-net,tap0 -s 4,virtio-blk,/dev/zvol/data/vm1 -s 
3,ahci-cd,vm1.iso -l com1,stdio -A vm1

And here is how to launch:
  bhyvectl --vm=vm1 --destroy
  grub-bhyve -r hd0 -m ./device.map -v -M 2048 vm1
   set root=(hd0,msdos1)
linux /vmlinuz root=/dev/vda1
initrd /initrd.img
boot
bhyve -c 2 -m 2048M -H -P -s 0:0,hostbridge -s 1:0,lpc -s 
2:0,virtio-net,tap0 -s 4,virtio-blk,/dev/zvol/data/vm1 -s 
3,ahci-cd,vm1.iso -l com1,stdio -A vm1
