I'm currently about to write the BLFS book pages for VirtualBox. On my system here - which is a 32bit - VirtualBox runs fine. At the moment, the only thing i can give to you is to make sure that you dont have set some makeflags (here -j) when compiling apcica. This caused errors here, too. For the AcpiGbl_functions stuff i need to have a closer look. > I checked my kernel has acpi compiled into.

I cannot see any config options displayed.

Seems so that the rest could be left out.
