============================================================================= VirtualBox was installed. You need to load the vboxdrv kernel module via /boot/loader.conf: vboxdrv_load="YES" You also have to add all users to your vboxusers group in order to use vbox. % pw groupmod vboxusers -m jerry Reboot the machine to load the needed kernel modules. Bridging Support: ================= For bridged networking please add the following line to your /etc/rc.conf: vboxnet_enable="YES" USB Support: ============ For USB support your user needs to be in the operator group and needs read and write permissions to the USB device. % pw groupmod operator -m jerry Add the following to /etc/devfs.rules (create if it doesn't exist): [system=10] add path 'usb/*' mode 0660 group operator To load these new rule add the following to /etc/rc.conf: devfs_system_ruleset="system" Then restart devfs to load the new rules: % /etc/rc.d/devfs restart Troubleshooting: ================ Running VirtualBox as non-root user may fail with a fatal error NS_ERROR_FACTORY_NOT_REGISTERED. In this case delete /tmp/.vbox-*-ipc file. If you experience "Network: write Failed: Cannot allocate memory" errors try to increase net.graph.maxdata in /boot/loader.conf If you are using AIO, then increase these limits (PR#168298): vfs.aio.max_buf_aio=8192 vfs.aio.max_aio_queue_per_proc=65536 vfs.aio.max_aio_per_proc=8192 vfs.aio.max_aio_queue=65536 To check if AIO is used use: kldstat -v | grep aio Check wiki page for known issues and troubleshooting: http://wiki.freebsd.org/VirtualBox Please report any problems to emulation@.
