Perhaps you are right, furthermore I can not see FreeBSD version of that function, so currently we have at least two different approaches: - Rollback to an old version of system memory calculation method (which was a dirty hack,according to code comments) - Or just implement such function and send it upstream. The second way seems to me more preferable. It takes me a few days, until that you have to use cli tools or previous VirtualBox port revision from svn. > > Oli > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-virtualization@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-virtualization > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-virtualization-unsubscribe@free= bsd.org" -- =ED=C9=C8=C1=C9=CC
