Hi I took the following note when installng freeBSD on VirtualBox:
Installation in VirtualBox:
from http://www.freebsd.org/ get a boot-install CDROM and burn it to a disk, because mounting the ISO file at installation-start does not work with freeBSD, you get a kernel-panic immediately. As installation source give one of the freebsd.org webs, Also, it is useless to copy an entire distribution to a local disk, using this as installation source woun't work either.
Possibly it may help you also on kvm.

Hi, All
The freebsd(version: 10.0, RC3) can't be installed as kvm guest based on
CentOS 6.5(kernel: kernel-2.6.32-431.17.1.el6.x86_64, qemu-kvm: qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2 -2.415.el6_5.8.x86_64). When installing it, it always shows 'booting' and hangs.

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance..
