I tried creating an OpenBSD 7.3 virtual machine on my new computer (Arch Linux
|
|
host) and the installer kept crashing with the error:

I use [virt-manager] to manage VMs. These are the steps to do that when creating the VM:
|
|
|
|
1. Create the VM and at the last step choose "Customize configuration before install"
|
|
2. Click on the "IDE CDROM 1" tab and change "Disk bus" to SATA
|
|
3. Then click Apply, and then Begin installation in the top left.
|
|
|
|
After that the VM installed successfully.
