Since yesterday I try to install FreeBSD 8 on Virtual Box 3.1.2 on Mac OX X as host from the iso image: 8.0-RELEASE-i386-dvd1.iso
Now, the initial boot and installation process seems to be fine: language, keyboard selection, particioning (All Auto), No boot manager (default), then selection of packets (all except sources). Installation procedure seems to run fine.
Then comes automatic reboot and FreeBSD is not booting, but again starting the installation procedure (language selection, keyboard...)
I tried to eject the "DVD" aka the virtual image before the installer starts the reboot, but then I get the message "no Kernel found".
This is very odd to me. So far I have installed Windows 7 and Ubuntu in the VM without problems.
can anyone give me hints here?
thank you very much.
