Howdy Guys,
After the announcement from Alexander Eichner about
Virtualbox on FreeBSD, we started the work on a port
for FreeBSD. Now we think that we solved the most
problems and are ready for the first Call for Testing.
Some notes before you can test the port:
Make sure you are using RELENG_7 or higher. You have
to use a fresh portstree with uptodate ports!! Please
read carefully the pkg-messages.
Some known issues / Troubleshooting:
Sometimes the kernel on HEAD coredumps when loading
or unloading the kernel module. A small workaround
to prevent the crash is to not start X, mount proc,
then load the kernel module and start X from the
console. That helped me and some testers, maybe you
too. :P AMD64 should be work in general, it builds
and start. But not right tested at the moment. We
want here also some feedback.
Some Thanks:
First of all we'd like to say many thanks to _ALL_
vbox developers. Next people are Bernhard Froehlich
(aka decke), Beat Gaetzi (beat@), Dennis Herrmann
(dhn@), Pietro Cerutti (gahr@), myself (*gg*),
and _ALL_ who helped and provided feedback.
Happy Testing :-)
