This is exactly what I seem to have learn about FreeBSD as Host on VirtualBox. In the end, all build is on x-windows and not BSD. It really pissed me off. I came to FreeBSD to learn what make it tick and by right, as a Virtual Host or whatever, it should make since to act as a switch "ONLY", but somebody want to hard-sale (demote) it to be a desktop like LINUX/WINDOWS and not true BSD/UNIX. Who really knows ...

Don't get me wrong, pcBSD is great but I'm talking pure BSD as a newbee who can only guest things out.
