I made some fixes to this and uploaded a revised patch here: http://people.freebsd.org/~manolis/patches/virtualization-virtualbox-chapter-patch-new.txt and a build (without images) here: http://people.freebsd.org/~manolis/patches/virtualization-guest.html Main changes are: - Use passive voice in some places to avoid "you" references - Improve markup in several places (filenames, devices, man pages etc). There maybe also a few other places (i.e. vboxvideo_drv should probably not be tagged using ) - Some minor language fixes to match the Handbook style in general This also needs a complete whitespace patch on top, but this can wait until any remaining issues are fixed. Please post followups to this if you have any comments.
