I'm trying to setup a FreeBSD VM in Virtualbox. The host OS is Mac OS X
10.6.6. I'm already running Windows 7 64 bit with no problems. When you
setup a new VM, you get a first time startup scenario that asks you to
point to a file (iso usually) that contains the setup program for the OS.
Then, when you boot the machine, setup begins.
That's not working for me. I've tried both the disc iso and the dvd iso
without success. I haven't tried it, but I assume that if I burned the
iso
and popped it in a box that I would get the setup menu and be able to
install the OS.
Is there some kind of trick required to get this working inside VB?
Did you try 8.1-i386 ?
I have failed to install 8.1-i386 under OSX VB. But 8.1-amd64 works fine
for me.
I tried amd since it's a 64 bit machine.
I've attached a screenshot of the vm. It's hung at this point and will not
go any further.
