From VirtualBox manual: VirtualBox's 64-bit guest support (added with version 2.0) and multiprocessing (SMP, added with version 3.0) both require hardware virtualization to be enabled. (This is not much of a limitation since the vast majority of today's 64-bit and multicore CPUs ship with hardware virtualization anyway; the exceptions to this rule are e.g. older Intel Celeron and AMD Opteron CPUs.) https://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch10.html#hwvirt -- Claudius ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
Re: problems with AHCI on FreeBSD 8.2
Hello,
I have got a quite similar problem with AHCI on FreeBSD 8.2 and it still
persists on FreeBSD 9.0 release.
Switching from ahci to ataahci resolved the problem for me too.
I'm using gmirror for swap, system is on a zpool and the problem first
occurred during a zpool scrub, but it is easily reproducible with dd.
The timeouts only occur when writing to disks, dd if=/dev/ada{0|1}
of=/dev/null is not an issue.
Sometimes I need to power off the server because after a reboot one disk
is still missing.
I really would like to help in this issue, so let me know if you need
any more information.
