You'll find little official support on the lists for problems you have due
to the hypervisor, but I've found that OpenBSD works great in VirtualBox.
You can't get VirtualBox Guest Additions working, but judging from the
popularity of this post I wrote almost 8 years ago, and the comments on it,
this trick still works for many people to get an OpenBSD VM into
full-screen mode.

Don't expect acceleration, guest/host clipboard interacrion or anything
else fancy from Guest Additions, but the basics for a daily-use OpenBSD
desktop, such as Lumina or XFCE, various terminals, web browsers and the
like work fine in VBox.
