Hi Odhiambo, Is there a HOWTO to be followed ? I do this like I have been doing it for over a year: 1) Install virtualbox-ose 2) Put 'vboxdrv_load=YES' in /boot/loader.conf 3) Put 'vboxnetadp_enable=YES' in /etc/rc.conf. Of late, this seems to have changed to 'vboxnet_enable=YES', so I just put both into rc.conf 4) Add myself to the group vboxusers and reboot I should now be good to create vm's, but am flunking out the last few days. I allocate a vdi (fixed size) and attach the operating system's ISO as IDE controller under VirtualBox -> vm -> Settings -> Storage. Then I start the virtual machine. Windows 10 vm creation gets stuck midway, whereas Linux vm's refuse to ping the internet. Is there some help you can provide to resolve the mess ? Thank you & Regards, Manish Jain On 2019-07-11 20:05, Odhiambo Washington wrote: > I am curious. Can you please point me to the HOWTO that you are following?help
