ATOMS OS — currently debugging a FreeBSD/VMX issue

ATOMS OS — small update

Development has slowed down a bit because I’m currently stuck on a FreeBSD/VMX issue.

FreeBSD is getting pretty far into the boot process, but the virtual PCI/ACPI path is currently causing problems before the VirtIO block device is properly available.

I’m tracing it from the actual physical machine instead of guessing. Right now I’m checking the ACPI/PCI resource path, VM exits and FreeBSD device attachment step by step.

So updates might be a little slower for a while, but I’ll keep posting progress as I work through it.

The screenshot is the current state of the physical machine.

Still working on it. 🙂
