Cant get Free BSD 9.0 too install in virtual box please help

[Galvatron]

Hi all I am trying to install FreeBSD 9.0 in virtual box and I keep getting this message

Error while Extracting ports.txz
Can't create 'usr/ports/net/p5-Net-ext/pkg-plist

x( I really want to start using FreeBSD

How big is the disk for the VM? The FreeBSD 9.0 installer created filesystems with too few inodes on small drives. Or there just might not be enough space.

Thank you dear sir or madam you were very helpful. I have an 80 GB drive, the original partition was 2 GB. I increased it to 10 GB. Installed fine, runs now but I am missing something. I just get a shell with command prompt. Would anyone be so kind as to tell me how to get a GUI so I can get to KDE or Gnome.
Thanks much :e

The command line is the FreeBSD interface. However, X can be installed if needed: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/x11.html.

Just installing PC-BSD is easier.
