Only root and operator have access to that device. Put your user in the
operator group. You will have to logout/login again. In your
shell/terminal, use the "groups" command to confirm you're really in the
operator group. Then start up your virtualbox and it should have access.
I was fighting with that last night, and just now figured it out. The
user should be a member of the operator group, but also must have rw
permissions on /dev/cd0, /dev/xpt0, and /dev/pass0... and here's the
trick: there can be more than one /dev/pass device. As soon as I added
pass1 and pass2 to /etc/devfs.conf, it worked:
perm cd0 0660
perm pass0 0660
perm pass1 0660
perm pass2 0660
perm xpt0 0660
HAL is not needed.
