Maybe you could suggest running FreeBSD in VirtualBox : http://www.virtualbox.org/ It's free, open source, and better supported by FreeBSD. You can run FreeBSD as a VirtualBox guest : http://www.freshports.org/emulators/virtualbox-ose-additions/ And run VirtualBox in a FreeBSD host : http://www.freshports.org/emulators/virtualbox-ose/ Cheers --=20 Olivier Smedts=A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 = =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0=A0 _ =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0= =A0 ASCII ribbon campaign ( ) e-mail: olivier@gid0.org=A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 - against HTML email & vCards=A0 X www: http://www.gid0.org=A0 =A0 - against proprietary attachments / \ =A0 "Il y a seulement 10 sortes de gens dans le monde : =A0 ceux qui comprennent le binaire, =A0 et ceux qui ne le comprennent pas."
