Re: Anybody is using VirtualBox?
Hi! I'm using 7.4 STABLE amd64, and i was not able to run it as well... from source, or even from packages... It keeps giving me the same error as you, btw I have been pointed in the past to one small fix, (that did not work from me as well) but did for others, let me find out this solution and re-posted for you! cheers!

Re: howto install virtualbox

Using RELENG_8 btw). I'm kind of a OS collector/nut/geek/nerd. As such virtualization is quite important to me. I've been using VMware Server 2.x on Gentoo for quite some time and, apart from the new console *barf*, it's been working for me so far. So needless to say I was hoping for vmware support. Tough luck... Ow well, the handbook spoke of virtualbox support. Only OSE, but still, better than nothing. After trying virtualbox on windows(at work) I decided to give it a go on FreeBSD amd64... Issuing make install in the virtualbox directory complained about me not having any 32-bit libraries installed. My questions are two fold: 1. Which options do I have when it comes to vritualization on FreeBSD 8 amd64? 2. How do I install virtualbox on amd64? Thanks, Mark I don't have a suitable amd64 system to test, but apparently virtualbox on amd64 requires this option to be built into the kernel: COMPAT_IA32 for latest info check the wiki page, as virtualbox is under heavy development: http://wiki.freebsd.org/VirtualBox ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/howto-install-virtualbox-tp25001665p25889863.html Sent from the freebsd-questions mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
