Hello,

I have big problems while installing FreeBSD 9.2 amd64. The system freeze after selecting boot option.
I have tried it with the bootonly and dvd image but the same.

Here the config:
Code: 
bootdisk: scsi0
cores: 1
cpu: qemu64
ide2: local:iso/FreeBSD-9.2-RELEASE-amd64-bootonly.iso,media=cdrom
memory: 2048
name: FreeBSD
net0: e1000=02:00:00:1F:0C:76,bridge=vmbr0
ostype: other
scsi0: local:103/vm-103-disk-1.qcow2,format=qcow2,size=32G
sockets: 1

I also tried with kvm64(default) as cpu but the same.
And i also tried with ide as hard disk.

Proxmox 3.1.3

King regards,
Chuck

bootdisk: scsi0cores: 4
cpu: qemu64
ide2: NAS_PVE:iso/FreeBSD-9.2-RELEASE-amd64-dvd1.iso,media=cdrom
memory: 4096
name: FreeBSD
net0: e1000=76:66:E0:6C:6B:81,bridge=vmbr192
ostype: other

Not working for me the virtual machine also freeze at boot.

I have seen this before. It seems like Intel Xeon's have problems virtualizing *BSD. Have you tried choosing Nehalem, Westmere, SandyBridge or host for CPU type?
 
No i don't have tried (i tried it in a hour). But BSD ist running without problem when i deactivate kvm virtualizing.

Edit: i tried it and don't work

Sorry for push this topic but problem isn't solved.

Virtual machine starts without problem when deactivating kvm virtualizing but not when this is active.
 
As written before I think this is an Intel only issue since I am able to virtualize any *BSD using kvm virtualizing over an AMD CPU. Maybe the relatively old version of qemu used in the current version of proxmox simply has poor support for Intel Ivy Bridge which is the chipset used by your CPU.
