virtualbox-ose port fails (12.1)

Tue May 19 20:08:51 UTC 2020

Christoph;

I think you didn't fully understand what I was saying.

There are 2 different scenarios:

1) FreeBSD is your main desktop/server OS on the physical machine, and you
run all your VMs in it using VirtualBox (whatever they are)

In this case, you do not need to compile the virtualbox-ose-additions port.
It isn't needed when you run VMs with FreeBSD as their host.
When you install VirtualBox on your FreeBSD physical machine, it comes with
an .iso file

(VBoxGuestAdditions_5.2.34.iso) that you should attach to your VMs (windows
ot linux) so you can install guest additions on them.

Here, vboxdrv.ko,vboxnetadp.ko and vboxnetflt.ko take care of EVERYTHING
concerning the VMs (shared folders, network, video, etc...)

2) You have whatever OS (BSD,Windows,Linux, Mac) for your desktop/server,
you installed VirtualBox on it, and you want to run FreeBSD AS VM on it.

That is the ONLY occasion you are gonna need to compile the
virtualbox-ose-additions port. INSIDE the running FreebSD vm! This is the
ONLY place where vboxvfs.ko is gonna of service.
  You should never compile this port on FreeBSD as host. ONLY as a VM!

The port not compiling IS a problem, but only if your scenario is number 2)
