FreeBSD as a VirtualBox Client.

Postat den 2011-04-17 av Lars Tunkrans

I am  building a VDI environment  this spring.  So naturally I was looking to setup a FreeBSD client as well in the virtual environment.  I discoverd that VirtualBox does not ship with FreeBSD  virtualbox-additions, and was a bit disappointed.  Then rememberd that there is a Virtualbox-OpenSource Edition of VBOX  for Freebsd.  ( in /usr/ports/emulators  )

I have now built the VirtualBox-OSE client and is using it with FreeBSD 8.2 i386  as a client on a Windows workstation.   Next step is to try it out  on the Solaris host that  runs the production VDI environment.
