>Description:
The Wiki:
https://wiki.freebsd.org/VirtualBox
And section 22.3.3 Virtualbox Host DVD/CD Access both indicate that /etc/devfs.conf needs:
perm cd* 0600
perm xpt0 0660
perm pass* 0660
However, if the CD/DVD on the host is detected as acd0 then you need:
link acd0 cd0
perm acd* 0600
perm xpt0 0660
perm pass* 0660
Also, as noted in another PR, you need to enable ATAPICAM. From the Wiki:
Host DVD/CD access
atapicam kernel module needs to be loaded via /boot/loader.conf:
atapicam_load="YES"
