That was a conscious design decision. There are simply too many different ways to configure jails, and even VMs on FreeBSD have enough variations that supporting every possible layout would add a lot of complexity for relatively little benefit.<br/><br/>I could see an argument for importing from widely used platforms like Proxmox or VMware, but even that probably doesn&#39;t make much sense until bhyve reaches closer feature parity with them.<br/><br/>That said, you *can* import existing VM disks. If the guest is UEFI-based, it&#39;ll usually boot just fine because VMs have far fewer configuration knobs than jails.<br/><br/>P.S. If you&#39;re going to try Sylve, I&#39;d recommend using the latest `tip` release from GitHub. The FreeBSD port is a little behind at the moment. I&#39;ll probably get around to updating it soon™ 2026-07-29T16:31:29Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsvgnnl4mfj5v0pxj0dqt7a8ljxpakrfxh8mpzswksfvetjpth6tsczyrwekwpmh3pn78mr6rsyrkmsxy6tfq4pqac7t7d08nl8e3qsf89h5z48s7p Windows 11 dropping support for these very capable mini PCs means many of them are headed for the bin.<br/><br/>Naturally, we’re giving them a second life as a 3-node Sylve cluster running FreeBSD.<br/><br/>Reduce e-waste! #RunBSD #Sylve<br/> <img src="https://media.bsd.cafe/bsdmmedia01/media_attachments/files/116/538/544/091/003/744/original/df0d5ef5e9e5c216.jpg"> <br/> 2026-05-08T10:47:34Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqs9sc4vqw5skhzmsykma65kvnld7kw3dglcsxjpy9stj79s8gd6u2gzyrwekwpmh3pn78mr6rsyrkmsxy6tfq4pqac7t7d08nl8e3qsf89h5yazg9x Sylve is now in the FreeBSD ports tree! <br/><br/>You can install it with `pkg install sylve`, or build it from ports: `cd /usr/ports/sysutils/sylve &amp;&amp; make install clean`<br/><br/>Really happy to see this land; thanks to @dch for all his help porting this! 🙌<br/><br/><a href="https://sylve.io">https://sylve.io</a><br/><a href="https://github.com/AlchemillaHQ/Sylve">https://github.com/AlchemillaHQ/Sylve</a><br/><br/>#FreeBSD #Sylve #RunBSD<br/> <img src="https://media.bsd.cafe/bsdmmedia01/media_attachments/files/116/330/690/549/824/415/original/977ca0348568b3e1.png"> <br/> 2026-04-01T18:15:26Z
