Just install it yourself in virtualbox (slow, always works) or kvm (requires hardware support). I just lost several hours today trying, so here's a list of pitfalls: * You need to change the virtual network card. VirtualBox's default, "PCnet-FAST III (Am79C973)", is recognized by kfreebsd but doesn't see the network. "PCnet-PCI II (Am79C970A)" works fine. * You need a particular d-i build: http://d-i.debian.org/daily-images/kfreebsd-i386/20100221-11:20/monolithic/ (I assume -amd64 works too). Current d-i dailies are broken (the partitioner fails, even with a pre-partitioned disk, not letting you assign mount points). Don't use the sysinstall images either (they install but filesystem operations randomly fail). Rumours that d-i builds 20100306 or 20100223 are ok are untrue as well (won't even boot past the splash screen). -- 1KB // Microsoft corollary to Hanlon's razor: // Never attribute to stupidity what can be // adequately explained by malice. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-mentors-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
