Create a Windows install in bhyve, doesn't need to be a full install, 
stopping after the first restart will do.  Then you can image the C: 
partition of your hardware install into the C: partition of bhyve 
install. Then boot the install media again and do a boot repair which 
will make the necessary changes to the Windows installation for efi.
