That did it ! Thanks so much, Damjan.
Still it only solves part of the mess. Now my Windows 10 vm works nicely, thanks again. But my Linux vm's are unable to ping the internet, not even 8.8.8.8 Do you (or anyone else) have any idea what to do for the Linux virtual machines such that they can access the internet ?

I earlier used to be able to create VirtualBox virtual machines. But now things are not so good. Now when I try to create a Windows 10 vm, the vdi gets created alright. But when I try to install Windows 10 on the vdi, the installer gets stuck at the stage just after "Copying files". I think that stage is captioned "Getting files ready for installation". The installation gets stuck at that stage at 41% or a lower value. Is there something I am doing wrong ? I have 'vboxdrv_load=YES' in /boot/loader.conf and 'vboxnet_enable=YES' in /etc/rc.conf. To be sure, this is a FreeBSD-specific issue. I booted into Linux where I was able to create the Windows 10 vm easily enough. As for creating Linux vm's inside FreeBSD VirtualBox, that is another sorry story. The installer welcome screen cannot even ping the internet address 8.8.8.8 despite the fact that NAT is always enabled for my vm's. Any help from you gentlemen to enable me create virtual machines under FreeBSD's VirtualBox would be greatly appreciated. -- Thank you & Regards, Manish Jain Try checking "Use Host I/O Cache" under the VM's Settings -> Storage.
