--Apple-Mail=_5242AC90-F5F7-4B86-BAD0-0133E37E866E Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Content-Type: text/plain; charset=windows-1252 I think this is a VirtualBox problem but I'd like to see if anyone else = in the FreeBSD community has seen this problem. Maybe they even have a = fix or workaround.=20 Is anyone using VirtualBox 4.3.14 to host FreeBSD amd64 guests? I'm = doing this with VirtualBox on Mac OS X and I get one of three behaviors = when start the FreeBSD guest: o The FreeBSD Guest hangs as Booting=85 o The guest loads the kernel but panics before launching init and = userland. o The guest boots fine. I cannot correlate anything that I'm doing to the guest that makes = VirtualBox behave this way and If I reboot the guest enough times = eventually it starts. My machine is a Core 2 Duo Mac Mini with 8G of = RAM. The guest has 1G of RAM. It runs FreeBSD 9.3-RELEASE. If you need more information please feel free to hit me off-list. Again, = I think this is a VirtualBox issue. -- Chris --Apple-Mail=_5242AC90-F5F7-4B86-BAD0-0133E37E866E Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=signature.asc Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: Message signed with OpenPGP using GPGMail -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJT5OxsAAoJEE2ar4QHIpj4W4kQAI4DKjPQdDloTHkRQK5LXjo9 YCmcjR+1A4cl5dg/He2DDY+g45ev9yicPHcl08fXz4OAIESvRv5qUhT8GN6duzFP 9Bl+TqpK2kC3GvMexFGmH/b0AyT/IDrpIHDHgR6KL9D83gjeF7FmqJG7G1tCNvW0 aK0V45sXPku26tihfWe0uRjUuGgkzMxUL6xmFOiBMc0/iy0cnb4UYTIiVwpxqtbg rDvCgdyjtiE+OaEQgI6930IlpmOSzo7VNYxk1nq82NuHDRphmkcM3Dt2Kpq9GLai Pbo/lWknq2aj2EiP6qBWJ9ZexgRbue40iScGhy+UAnKllSaPS081PVR9NSwF1Bn8 upKuO+AqAtlst5NlOgbMXnU9Pkq7vMeHqv1KDglYtx3el05GY98T1A8xUywQOt08 b0gzc8oPGMDzcLGMDlQghTKXA1p2XidQsJxrTXRI9fjJfTK/N92/D608La0i6rgJ bYVBctKV2eAyWZgNN3snuK+hAZVImFpvc129wIQ8oyCWC45Q8ukNTrHXDtEUkrao iCRvOGXv/2lapNbv1iCNSxqgsYFHWeeOZFgHhvba8v9v1f/mfHnYdxgTML+xr4Qo Y/fWwZcYweMqD809OK37OfwZ8gT4D7ObWqUq1O3Ds7TE3GXKkTlIZgCHH68SJcuZ u3bmVCTpBtOykXqbPm8x =S8i0 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Apple-Mail=_5242AC90-F5F7-4B86-BAD0-0133E37E866E--
