![]() ![]() ![]() The script should be used on a machine with the following tools installed: gdisk, wget, unzip, qemu-img, qemu-nbd, and rsync: #!/bin/bash ![]() I conducted several tests, but the best solution was suggested by user kriszos on the MikroTik forum (even if kriszos was dealing with Hyper-V). For this reason, Proxmox (KVM) doesn't experience any issues, while bhyve seems unable to properly boot the VM. It seems that the MikroTik CHR image based on RouterOS 7 has an unusual partition table, somewhere between MBR and GPT. It doesn't boot at all, and if you upgrade from RoS 6 to RoS 7, it ceases to function entirely. Unfortunately, things change when dealing with RouterOS 7. Our FreeBSD hypervisors run vm-bhyve as a lightweight, efficient, and intelligent management tool for VMs.Įven though MikroTik states that bhyve is not supported (as they believe it's merely a paravirtualization software), CHR based on RouterOS 6 works flawlessly, following the hints provided by the vm-bhyve documentation. That's why I'm also implementing virtualized MikroTik CHR solutions - they're lightweight, efficient, and can handle a significant amount of traffic with minimal resource overhead. From the smallest Wi-Fi router to the largest enterprise routing platform, they employ the same software with (almost) the same features. Additionally, they're a European company. They produce and sell reasonably-priced, efficient hardware, and have implemented some interesting proprietary solutions (EoIP, etc.). While I love FreeBSD-based router solutions (OPNsense, PFsense, etc.), I also appreciate and use MikroTik devices and software. ![]()
