Hi gang!

Prerequisites: I am assuming that you know how to install software on FreeBSD and also have some basic understanding about FreeBSD jails.

I'm going to be very honest here: I started disliking Linux for a while, and I've worked with it for a long time.

You might consider using bhyve. In my experience, it's able to install most Linux distributions, and I suspect that the ones that gave me problems are my fault, not bhyve's. I use vm-byve which automates a lot of it. My own page
https://srobb.net/vm-bhyve.html and it has a link to vermaden's much more complete page.
