bhyve device emulation initialization error

[tech-lists]

Hi,

I'm trying to install an old 11.1-release like this:

vmrun.sh -c 4 -m 32768M -tap2 -d test-host.img -i -I
FreeBSD-11.1-RELEASE-amd64-dvd1.iso test-host

I get the boot screen and countdown but it fails to boot like this:

/boot/kernel/kernel text=0x14972f8 data=0x1384c0+0x4c15e8
syms=[0x8+0x15e8b0+0x8+0x178422]
Booting...
device emulation initialization error: No such file or directory

...and returns me to the command prompt.

Just in case it was an outated bhyve on this 12-stable r354992 system, I did
this as root, on r355929 /usr/src:

# cd /usr/src/usr.sbin/bhyve && make && make install

installed without error

tried the vmrun.sh command again, same result.

Is there a way around this?

thanks,
