Can I use disk images from QEMU, VMware, or other virtualization platforms on bhyve?

bhyve does not currently support reading foreign disk image formats directly, so one will have to convert existing VMDK, QCOW, QCOW2, and VDI disk images to a raw image using qemu-img. This can be accomplished by doing the following on a FreeBSD system:

$ pkg install qemu-tools
$ qemu-img convert -f vmdk -O raw vmware_image.vmdk bhyve_raw_image.raw
