 === Installing FreeBSD on Parallels Desktop on Mac(R)
 
 The first step in installing FreeBSD on Parallels is to create a new virtual machine for installing FreeBSD.
-Select [.guimenuitem]#FreeBSD# as the menu:Guest OS Type[] when prompted:

+Choose menu:Install Windows or another OS from a DVD or image file[] and proceed.
 
-Choose a reasonable amount of disk and memory depending on the plans for this virtual FreeBSD instance.
-4GB of disk space and 512MB of RAM work well for most uses of FreeBSD under Parallels:

-After the FreeBSD virtual machine has been created, FreeBSD can be installed on it.
-This is best done with an official FreeBSD CD/DVD or with an ISO image downloaded from an official FTP site.
-Copy the appropriate ISO image to the local Mac(R) filesystem or insert a CD/DVD in the Mac(R)'s CD-ROM drive.
-Click on the disc icon in the bottom right corner of the FreeBSD Parallels window.
-This will bring up a window that can be used to associate the CD-ROM drive in the virtual machine with the ISO file on disk or with the real CD-ROM drive.
+Name the virtual machine and check menu:Customize settings before installation[]

-Once this association with the CD-ROM source has been made, reboot the FreeBSD virtual machine by clicking the reboot icon.
-Parallels will reboot with a special BIOS that first checks if there is a CD-ROM.
+When the configuration window pops up, go to menu:Hardware[] tab, choose menu:Boot order[], and click menu:Advanced[].
+Then, choose *EFI 64-bit* as menu:BIOS[].

-In this case it will find the FreeBSD installation media and begin a normal FreeBSD installation.
-Perform the installation, but do not attempt to configure Xorg at this time.
+Click menu:OK[], close the configuration window, and click menu:Continue[].
