Not weird at all - VB supplies a generic emulated interface. The host supports the real interface.

You need a module (sky2 ?) to support that chip - see the wiki; Network

Post the results of your Ethernet adapter:

Code:
ifconfig eth0
Also what does your network configuration look like in your '/etc/rc.conf'? If you can post your 'rc.conf' file here to find out if it's listed as DHCP or static. Try the 'dhcpd' command and see if that works for you.

I so don't like these VirtualBox testings... VB is very unstable, OS in VB works even worse. Some of them don't work at all when they work fine on a real machine.

I've never encountered this but you could be right. It's simply an alternative to dedicating an entire machine to see if an O.S. / distribution will work. I always prefer the real thing over a VM. Arch with out a doubt is well worth every machine I have ever loaded it on and more...
