</div>I ran into the same isssue with FreeBSD images. These are<br>
paravirtualized drivers which are absolutely required to get the VM to<br>
work. Linux images usually have them already but for FreeBSD (and<br>
Windows) you need to install them by hand. note that when using kvm by<br>
hand you can specify the driver emulation required so this is why it<br>
boots by hand but not via openstack (you could also configure<br>
openstack to use different kvm settings, but the virtio driver is<br>
faster and installing the drivers on FreeBSD isn't too hard. I'm not<br>
much of a *BSD guy but I managed)<br>
