Greetings,

I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with corruption
(memory, virtual disk?) when running FreeBSD 8.x under Hyper-V. There
are a number of reports of it in the FreeBSD bug tracker, but I
thought given the work being done on the integration components
someone here may have had first hand experienced at this (and possible
work arounds). Rumours suggest it only affects >32gb virtual disks.
The following PRs are on file:

http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=amd64/153496
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=kern/153990
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=amd64/162314
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=i386/170356

Does anyone here have any experience with this and is there any
work-arounds that any of you have discovered? If not, is there any
chance of someone testing to see if they have any luck with this and
maybe suggesting a solution?

Very much looking forward to being able to deploy our systems on HyperV...

Regards,
Antony Mawer
