>Description:
I am trying to install the FreeBSD7.0/i386 on the top of x86_64 architecture in the qemu emulator.  (for some reason the x86_64 version does not work in qemu, why?)  It takes ages and I don't know how long time it will take.

I want percentage and elapsed time/estimated time progress bar.
