Bug ID: 210361
Summary: Virtual Machine images don't work with VirtualBox
[.qcow file format]
Product: Documentation
Version: Latest
Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Many People
Priority: ---
Component: Website
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
VirtualBox is listed in the README file under virtual machine images on the
latest release: https://www.freebsd.org/where.html. However, I was unable to
get FreeBSD to boot with any of the .qcow files listed. VirtualBox doesn't have
an option to boot from the file format. I was able to get VirtualBox to work
with the "disc1.iso" format listed under the main section for installer images.
If the release page could indicate that this is the case, it could clear up
some confusion.
Also (very minor note, probably not important) the README file is a bit hard to
locate due to being the same style/font/color as the other links. Could be
helpful to separate it for visibility.
