Hello, I've tested both i386 and amd64 images on my Xen setup (Xen 4.5), and found the following issues:
i386 version: The network card is not correctly detected by the installer, see: https://people.freebsd.org/~royger/kfreebsd32.png which is basically a show stopper, so I haven't been able to test anything else. ifconfig also shows nothing when executed from the installer shell. `xenstore-ls -fp` on Dom0 shows that the device is connected, so I guess it must be some kind of user-space incompatibility? amd64 version: I've been able to complete an installing attaching the disk as 'xvda', if I set it to attach as 'hda' on the DomU configuration file the installer fails to find it. The difference between using this two options is that if you specify 'xvda' the disk will be presented as 'xbd0', while if you use 'hda' the disk will appear as 'ada0'. It seems quite strange to me that the installer fails to detect the 'ada0' disk, since it's the nomenclature used by many native disk controllers on FreeBSD. Apart from that, the grub install step was not able to find the disk/partition by default, so I had to specify it in the prompt as '/dev/xbd0'. In case anyone is interested, this is the log from the amd64 kFreeBSD guest.
