I've had 32-bit and 64-bit FreeBSD 6.2 and 7.0 running in Xen 3.2 an 3.3 HVM setups, using Debian and Ubuntu for the Xen dom0. Requires hardware virtualisation support in the CPU/chipset, preferably using AMD CPUs, as their hardware virt isn't broken.
I've never bothered trying to get FreeBSD running in a PVM.
However, with the introduction of hardware virtualisation support in all new CPUs, I've given up on the complexity of Xen, and have started using KVM instead.

Well these are Dual Quad Intel E5405's with virtualization support turned on. I have been trying to get FBSD7 it installed for a couple of days now with no luck. Would you be kind enough to enlighten me how you got it running? I would move to a different virtualization program (VMWare Server 1.X is usually my poison of choice) but we already have 5 CentOS servers running ontop of this for developers.
Worse comes to worse I will have to wait until 8 :-\ (thanks for the heads up on that by the way)
