Hi all,
Firstly, I created my first virtual machine using Virtualbox yesterday. It took a bit of nutting out but now everything is running great and I have about five of them! Loving it. But couple of questions.
I created an ISO of my minimal install as a backup using remastersys with:
That all worked fine and the customiso.iso file is there. I assign that to a virtual machine, choose 'Try LiveCD', all goes well until it gets to this error message and hangs:
I've been doing a bit of thinking and wonder if anyone can let me know if I'm on the right track.
The fstab of the install I created the ISO from has entries to mount local partitions on my hard drive. Now, as I haven't got to how to share drives with VB yet, I'm thinking the customiso vm is trying to mount these from the fstab, but of course can't: it's a virtual machine and can't see the outside world without some persuasion.
Any ideas?
There is a LOT I don't know about vms for the moment, but I'll keep digging and asking questions. ;)
