I'm not sure that I understood the question right. I just tried the image below and it works, is it suitable for you?

If you choose older image, be sure that you set "Operating System = Other" in Parallels VM configuration. The current one should work with any setting.

Hi,

I saw a video from one of your developers, and it seems he was able to
somehow test freebsd on Apple M1 macbook. Parallels on Apple M1
accepts only vhdx or iso images. The aarch64/ARM64 images are not
available in either of the format. There is a vhd image, but it is not
accepted by Parallels. Can you please post the vhdx or iso images?
