Created attachment 156554 [details] Possible fix to mkimg invocation amd64 vmdk images for 10.1-STABLE and 11.0-CURRENT as found on ftp.freebsd.org are not actually vmdk format files, but instead appear to be miscreated raw image files. Examining release/tools/vmimage.subr for both -head and -stable svn branches, it appears that the mkimg invocation lost the passing of the -f argument during a rewrite a few months ago. Probably need to change all the mkimg invocations in vmimage.subr to include a "-f ${VMFORMAT}" argument (see attached for possible fix).
