Edit: I see the same results on xenserver 6.5 (stable) as well (all else equal except I could only afford 4 GB of RAM).
Normally I would not report this since xenserver 6.6 is still in beta (version used: XenServer Dundee beta.2).
I'm not able to try this out on the latest stable xenserver so I do not know if it is also affected.
However, since an older .iso works great (and I've installed and later updated freenas with that version with no problems) it would seem that a recent change caused the issue so I thought it might help to track down if this was reported early on.
Install works fine using: FreeNAS-9.3-STABLE-201512121950.iso
Install crashes using: FreeNAS-9.3-STABLE-201602031011.iso
VM info:
vCPUs: I've tried with a single and multiple CPUs.
RAM: 8 GB
Storage: One 16 GB disk.
Install procedure:
