Sorry for my rush on the previous post. Here is a better script:
----------------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/sh
#
# $FreeBSD: src/etc/rc.d/vbox,v 1.0 2009/12/22 20:20:06 mlobo Exp $
#
# PROVIDE: vbox
# REQUIRE: LOGIN
# KEYWORD: nojail
. /etc/rc.subr
name="vbox"
start_cmd="${name}_start"
stop_cmd=":"
vboxm_start()
{
/sbin/kldload vboxnetflt
/sbin/kldload vboxnetadp
}
vbox_start()
{
if checkyesno vbox_enable; then
echo ' VirtualBox modules'
vboxm_start
fi
}
load_rc_config $name
run_rc_command "$1"
-------------------------------------------------------
You have to place vbox_enable="YES" on /etc/rc.conf
