Hy,

First of all, thank you very much for providing that image,
However i found some points that could use a cleanup/fix to and act more 
like the images from:
https://download.freebsd.org/releases/VM-IMAGES/13.1-RELEASE/aarch64/Latest/ 


  * ZFS Module gets loaded from loader.conf and rc.conf, but why? there
    is not zfs and top shows a empty arc, the std images don't do that.
  * The installed pkg like panicmail, is that why the image is called
    *_test?
  * When running "freebsd-update IDS" there is probably not a single
    checksum that matches the release, why is that?
  * The 1G Swap partition...why? The std images don't have that, if one
    needs a swap then a swapfile would be preferred.
  * DHCP gives me 1000's of errors like "dhclient[40246]: 5 bad udp
    checksums in 5 packets"
  * User root AND freebsd gets the ssh-key. Both can login, no
    "PermitRootLogin no" or "AllowUsers freebsd"

Have a great Day and again Thanks,
Gian-Simon
