Ok am slowly getting in to this.
Am running 9.10 with virtualbox running xp as a guest.
I have installed guest additions on the guest and now am having problems with the following code. Probably very basic for you guys but still new to me.
mkdir ~/VirtualBoxShare
VBoxManage sharedfolder add "XP" -name "share" -hostpath /home/your/shared/folder/VirtualBoxShare/I get the first line, and that works but I get an error on the second line.
Lets say I have a folder called Shared in my home folder and I want to make that shared between the guest and host, what would I need to put in for that?
If I want to share a folder named 'shared' that is on my 2nd HDD, which appears to be called 2058B12558B0FA9C, what should I type then?
Is it possible to give my guest XP installation full access to my 2nd hard drive?
And finally, is it possible for my guest XP to have USB support or is that just available in the non free versions?
Sorry for all the questions!
