Were you running it on 8.0?  I am wondering if the issue was fixed in
8.1.  I have commented out the modules for now.  I am a little nervous
about file system corruption from hard crash/reboots.

I can set up a jail for my FreeBSD sandbox.  However, my server is the
only viable i386 environment that I have to play with other OS's like
Linux, so I would like to still use vbox if I can be confident it is
stable because this server is a production machine.  All my other
boxes are Apple machines.
