[6.7.2] FreeBSD 11.3, 12, 12.1 no network interface detected

Doesn't look like an unraid issue to me, appears to be a problem with FreeBSD

I did read that thread previously, and I don't believe it's the same issue.  

 

I have also created a thread on the FreeBSD forum and another user is not having any issues with KVM on a Debian host.

Instead of waiting for a "fix", Unraid should go the way PVE is doing it - FreeBSD works perfectly with VirtIO under PVE.

I'm running both 11.3 and 12.1 VMs under PVE without any issues whatsoever.

Disk: VirtIO SCSI

Network: virtio

I'm not familiar with PVE. Do you have any idea what the difference is? My understanding is unRAID is just wrapping up existing Virtio/QEMU packages. 
 

I put all my eggs in one basket with unRAID, so this is quite the bummer. MacOS works, why not FreeBSD?

I don't know what the difference is, exactly, but the fact is - it works. I'm baffled as to how Unraid is handling this - Bug reports, basically blaming the OS developers, instead of looking for a way to make it work. And for a way - there is one, PVE (Proxmox VE) is an example.

 

I really hope Unraid gets this fixed soon...
