Hey rgo,

I think it makes no sense to state that the only use case for virtualisation is using machines with 100+ GB of RAM and more than 32 cores. Let's agree to disagree.

Hi rgo,

Thanks for your reply.

I have very good reasons to run VMs instead of directly on the board which go beyond the topic of this post.

Also please note that the APU2 is not exactly "low-end" hardware - at least not for my purposes. It's running 5 (Linux) VMs at very pleasant speeds, some of which would be equally taxing on the hardware as a fully configured OPNsense would be. In fact OPNsense (in a default post install config, ie. without doing anything at all really), currently has a whopping 1GB of RAM, 4 times as much as the current VPN concentrator.

I very much doubt it's a matter of (lack of) resources. This looks like a bug to me.

Hi,

I'm new to OPNsense, have looked at pfSense in the past and until now have been happily rolling my own.
I've installed 17.1 running under Xen (open source) and got a hard crash, see attached screen shot of the console.
Xen in this case is running on a PCengines APU2, happily running production of a number of Linux VMs, but not OPNsense unfortunately. Any suggestions?
