I use Intel I5, according to freebsd installation menu:
https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/bsdinstall-hardware.html
FreeBSD/amd64 should be used for AMD64 processors, Intel® Core™ i3, i5 and i7 processors and more.

C:\Users\jiansen\VirtualBox VMs\iso
Open Oracle VM VirtualBox Manager

create a virtual hard drive now
select VDI
dynamic allocated
chose 20GB
In Virtual box
go to Settings->Storage
Beside CD/DVD Drive, choose a virtual CD/DVD file
got to the directory FreeBSD-10.0-RELEASE-amd64-dvd1.iso is located
and select FreeBSD-10.0-RELEASE-amd64-dvd1.iso
check live CD/DVD
Start or reset FreeBSD 10 AMD 64 (my name for this virtual server)
You need to type your hostname in the Set Hostname screen, I suggest "freebsd" but you might want another name for it. If you plan to use this system to host a network service like Kerberos or LDAP you might want to use a full qualified domain name here.
then choose default and click OK
hostname can be changed later:
As root, type "hostname <new hostname>", and the hostname will be changed immediately. To make this change permanent across reboots, edit the file '/etc/rc.conf', and add the following line: hostname="new.host.name" The '/etc/rc.conf' file is described here:
set root password (I temporaly set it as password)password
In the Network Configuration screen, select "<Yes>" for "IPv4", select "<Yes>" for "DHCP", select "<No>" for IPv6 (VirtualBox 4.1.10 has limited support for IPv6) and select "<OK>" in the resolver configuration (your DNS servers should be there already but be sure to type at least one IP address if your fields are blank), in my case
Resolver configuration user network configuration, the following is already there
Search vchri.med.ubc.ca
IPV4 DNS #1: 142.103.1.1
UTC time, select NOselect America, select 11 Canada

remember to unmount your virtual CD when the VirtualBox logo appears or it might boot from it again. Devices->CD/DVD device uncheck bsd, force unmount
Post-Installation:
A minimal system is running, here is what you need to know in order to get started in the FreeBSD world.
Keep your Kernel updated
You probably want to check if there are updates (especially security ones) for your Kernel, use the following command to get the updates available:
freebsd-update fetch
If updates are found, use the following command to install them: freebsd-update install
To install an application, using
pkg install curl
