Unfortunately, the OSE edition of VirtualBox doesn't support USB
pass-through, and that is the only edition available on FreeBSD ATM.

As for serial ports, I've only used the "virtual" type connected to a
guest VM; I set things up according to the VirtualBox manual...

I use the machine snapshot feature frequently. Although for machine
backup, I'm currently using software that installs on the guest
itself. I'm interested in hearing about other users' methods as
well...

VirtualBox supports a form of live migration which they call
"Teleportation", but again, I haven't any experience using it :(
