I'm getting this regularly on some machines where I installed kfreebsd.
Despite of the annoying warning during installation a few times it is
harmless and no side effects seem to appear. At least to me, I could
continue any installation where this message appeared.

It might be helpful to know which ioctl d-i tries to call down the bus,
as I suspect it is one not supported by the FreeBSD kernel. Hence,
bypassing that code may help.

Aside, I had Wheezy d-i installations running on Virtualbox without
problems.

Let me know if I can provide you more details/testing.
