Looking at the software selections available in each, I find that while many crucial pieces of software are held in the sysinstall package list, the ports selection has an overall wider selection of software available. I think overall that both are necessary, as you cannot necessary get a given package from both methods. If a package is available by both methods, it seems that sysinstall is quicker due to avoiding the need to compile.

I tried installing FreeBSD on kvm-qemu but didnt work probably because I dont have the 'vmx' flag set in my processor. But I was successfully able to install FreeBSD in my VirtualBox. It works fine. I also installed packages like gnome and bash etc.
