I successfully installed oracle virtualbox.
Then landed on this site:
<a class=3D"moz-txt-link-freetext" href=3D"https://freebsdfoundation.org/=
freebsd-project/resourcesold/installing-freebsd-with-virtualbox/" moz-do-=
not-send=3D"true">https://freebsdfoundation.org/freebsd-project/resources=
old/installing-freebsd-with-virtualbox/</a>
then I choose 13.1:
<a class=3D"moz-txt-link-freetext" href=3D"https://download.freebsd.org/r=
eleases/amd64/amd64/ISO-IMAGES/13.1/" moz-do-not-send=3D"true">https://do=
wnload.freebsd.org/releases/amd64/amd64/ISO-IMAGES/13.1/</a>
Now, which one should I choose: bootonly.iso or disc.iso or dvd1.iso?
</pre>

<pre class=3D"moz-quote-pre" wrap=3D"">A short quote from the page =
you're reading:
For Virtual Machines, the format you are looking for is the file
ending in -disk.iso as shown abovew.</pre>
</blockquote>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>There is no -disk.iso</p>
<p>I'll request corrections (and an addition) to the Foundation's
page.=C2=A0</p>
<p>I do agree with the Foundation's direction to use an installer
(to not use a FreeBSD-provided VM image). <br>
