Dragonfly under VirtualBox?

Hi Louis,

Have you enabled the VT-x/AMD-V option in VirtualBox? It will only be
available in the case your processor has virtualization extensions
(Intel Core2duo/Core2quad and AMD Athlon64 x2 among others).

I haven't been able to run DFBSD in VBox without it.

Regards,
Antonio
