You can download the installer from
jenkins.kfreebsd.eu/jenkins/view/cd/job/debian-cd_sid_kfreebsd-
amd64/ws/build/debian-unofficial-kfreebsd-amd64-NETINST-1.iso
to install in a VM, e.g. qemu.
Change the sources.list to
deb-src http://ftp.se.debian.org/debian/ sid main contrib non-free
deb http://ftp.ports.debian.org/debian-ports sid main
deb http://ftp.ports.debian.org/debian-ports unreleased main
deb-src http://ftp.ports.debian.org/debian-ports unreleased main
deb http://ftp.ports.debian.org/debian-ports experimental main
and upgrade to sid.
Good luck!
