Hi,

  I was able to install 16.04 server from the official ISO in bhyve on 
both a 10.1-RELEASE and CURRENT host without issues.

  That looks like grub wasn't able to find the linux kernel. A simple 
check would be hit 'c' at the grub menu and then have a look around the 
filesystem from the grub prompt to see if the vmlinuz file is present.

later,

Peter.
