Hello All,
I successfully installed FreeBSD 7.1 on Virtual Box 2.2.0 in Fedora Core 10 machine.
Regarding the installation everything went smooth, but I had some problem with FreeBSD accessing the network.
This is what solved my problem.
In the Network tab for your virtual machine FreeBSD in my case, select the following:
- Select Enable Network Adapter
- Adapter Type PCNet-PCI II (Am79C970A)
- Attached to NAT
And in Guest Setting in same tab,
- Generate Guest MAC Address:
- Select Cable connected
Now boot your guest OS (FreeBSD), once you login do the following:
Add the following line to /etc/rc.conf file at the end
- ifconfig_le0="DHCP"
This solved my issue, I was able to access network from my FreeBSD in virtual box now.
Good luck.
