|

<p>bhyve is a Type-1 hypervisor that runs on the &os; platform.
|
||||
It currently only runs &os; (9.x or later) and Linux guests,
|
||||
current development efforts aim at widening support for other
|
||||
x86 64-bit operating systems. After a great deal of work by all
|
||||
involved, bhyve was shipped as part of &os; 10.0-RELEASE.
|
||||
Increased interest in bhyve and the first usable versions have
|
||||
provided great feedback and many bug reports.</p>
