Here are some useful links. I built the freebsd 6.3 version with xen. You didn't specify if you wanted to get it running in hvm or paravirt. The build stuff is for modified freebsd with xen for running in paravirt. http://wiki.freebsd.org/FreeBSD/Xen http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/virtualization-guest.html http://benoit.litchis.org/freebsd-xen/ (location of some images) To build you use XEN kernel config - something like: make buildworld buildkernel installworld installkernel distribution DESTDIR=/foo KERNCONF=XEN Create disk image or put on physical disk and then mess with /etc to setup files you need.

So far a separate FreeBSD build box is the best way to go. You can set this up in the virtualization solution of your choice. VirtualBox and KVM work well.
