Thank you very much, kseki. That's a great piece of work. It found and loaded my existing vdi files, everything seems to be working well.

Thank you for the words. It's my pleasure.

BTW,
do you wanna exchange files between Finder and your guest OS without NAS or another Mac/PC?
If so, please check the above page again. I added the way to do that using "floppy disk image".

This is great thank you guys for taking the time to develop it. I do have one followup question. I ended up installing xubuntu on to my mac via rEFIT with bootcamp, do is there any way to mount the bootcamp drive while in OSX to use in VirtualBox? I'd be amazed if it can be done, at the moment Disk Utility shows the ubuntu drive as shaded out and when I attempt to mount it calls for repairing it first, when I do that the repair fails with the following error:

Disk Utility stopped repairing “disk0s3” because the following error was encountered:

Filesystem verify or repair failed.


Ideally I'd like to be able to boot into ubuntu, but also access it from OSX. Any insight is appreciated
