With SAS virtual controller all workin, very slowly but working.
In places (unpacking base79.tgz) it stops for minutes on 0%, 5% etc
but does not show errors and after breaks it continues unpacking.

NVMe controllers ask for virtualbox extensions to the OS from
a special disk for virtualbox (probably driver).

But anyway I can test OpenBSD on virtual iSCSI Lun, that's great.


Best regards, Dmitry.
