Hmm, nut sure about vhd image struture, but I doubt you can use that as
block backend.
You can attach the HDD and ODD to the same controller.
If you use md(4) as hdd backend, does taht change anything (mdconfig -a
-t swap -s 10G and "-s
3:0,ahci,hd:/dev/mdX,cd:usr/jails/src/iso/windows2012.iso")?
Or a zvol or sparse file (truncate -s 10g
/your/data/path/bhyve-testdisk.file) insetad of md, just to rule out the
vhd image file.
