Hi, my first post :)
I have successfully installed OPNsense under bhyve on a FreeBSD server. I use iohyve for the VMs management and I can start the OPNsense VM with the command :
# iohyve start opnsense
that will be expanded to the two commands :
bhyveload -m 1G -d /dev/zvol/pool2tb/iohyve/opnsense/disk0 -c /dev/nmdm5A ioh-opnsense
bhyve -c 1 -A -H -P -m 1G -s 0,hostbridge -s 1,lpc -s 2,ahci-hd,/dev/zvol/pool2tb/iohyve/opnsense/disk0 -s 3,virtio-net,tap6 -lcom1,/dev/nmdm5A ioh-opnsense
The VM works and works well, but the problem is the console. If I start a console with the command :
# iohyve console opnsense
it will be expanded to :
cu -l /dev/nmdm5B -s 9600
but the console doesn't work or more precisely: it works before the console menu is displayed. The last displayed lines are :
Root file system: /dev/gpt/rootfs

After this output the keyboard keys aren't displayed. If I restart the VM I can even make a selection in the boot menu, but after booting the console is unusable.
Any idea ?

I had the same thing tonight, except I don't use iohyve or nmdm for serial console.
I do notice you only have one NIC? Perhaps becasuse you use VLANs?
Mine was just to test installation so I only added one tap device to do an installation, which I couldn't...
Did you put OPNsense in serial mode?

I did not. Also no VNC, just plain output in my Putty SSH session.
Apart from that, exactly what the OP encounters.
