VB 2.2.4 Host OS selection hint

Post by jason32 »

Hello,

I am looking for a Best Practice Guide for:

running FreeBSD AMD64 version on a very low footprint Virtual Box Host (EM64T support, no Intel VT-X support), kind of home server.

I don't care about the host system as long as it doesn't request too much ressources (google vuppy).

I thought about using CentOS 64 bit as host system. However it seems to quite overloaded...

Is there any recommendation like FedCore,Ubuntu Server etc...

Bye

Jason

A 64bit Guest requires vt-x on the Host to be enabled and active.
