    Anyone having difficulty with Virtualbox 4.2.4 ?  It's stopped working for me after a reboot and I cannot understand what has changed or what to do about it.

    The basic problem is the zoneaccess service:

    	root at world:~# svcs -xv zoneaccess
    	svc:/application/virtualbox/zoneaccess:default (VirtualBox Zone Access Service.)
    	 State: offline since 20 January 2013 18:19:42 EST
    	Reason: Service svc:/application/virtualbox/kerneldriver:default
    	        is not running because a method failed repeatedly.
    	   See: http://illumos.org/msg/SMF-8000-GE
    	  Path: svc:/application/virtualbox/zoneaccess:default
    	          svc:/application/virtualbox/kerneldriver:default
    	Impact: This service is not running.

    Looking at its manifest's start method, it seems that:

    	root at world:~# LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/VirtualBoxKernel/amd64 /opt/VirtualBoxKernel/amd64/VBoxZoneAccess

    is the starting method but this returns immediately ($? == 0) with no error code.  This might be related to the fact that /dev/vboxdrv is missing, although vboxflt, vboxnet and vboxnet0 are present.  I tried uninstalling and reinstalling driver/virtualization/virtualbox but no dice.

    Any ideas ?

    I wonder if this is in any way related to my earlier-reported problem of not seeing zvol devices in a non-global zone.
