I have added my notes about vbox 4 on OS X to http://plan9.bell-labs.com/wiki/plan9/virtual_machines/index.html Feel free to update. To do: add freebsd notes. But I am not a fan of Wikis. Usually a wiki ends up being an unstructured collection of useful facts that can go stale as it takes a lot of effort to keep it organized.
