FreeBSD 6.2 and extensions?

Post by slk2k »

Has anyone gotten the vbox guest additions sinstalled on a freebsd6.2 guest? My Freebsd guest works great (once I solved the problem if the constant sigreturn errors when building ports*), but I have not been able to install the extensions yet. BTW, using WIndows XP Pro as host OS.

* - Problem solved by updating /boot/loader.conf by adding the line kern.hz="100" into the file. Saves me from having to build a custom kernel.

I updated /boot/loader.conf by adding the line kern.hz="100" into the file and rebooted. Problem solved.
