Yes, that a good idea especially taking into account that I have many variables. I'm trying to migrate Windows 7 on an encrypted volume from VBox to bhyve. The advantage of a floppy drive is that it's drive letter in Windows is always "A:". I believe the ecnryption key is tied to it too. Currently I'm going to decrypt it first to make sure that the migration itself works. Then will follow in particular your advice. The USB contrell pass-trough is a must for me since I need many USB devices in that virtualized Windows. Thanks, Sergey
