Yeah, Martin's talk was good. Jenkins does the installation and
bootstraps puppet (installs it from pkg) and then things go from there.

I have the beginnings of a puppet script to use
http://www.bhyve.org/vmrc/ to deploy FreeBSD VMs (it is a script that
installs to an image or zvol then boots it in bhyve)

There is a talk partially based on it here: http://www.bhyvecon.org/
"bhyve Provisioning and Monitoring"

I'll see what I can come up with for you tomorrow.
